Hi Anthony, Thanks for your active participation in this group. I am confused about pointing the DNS to another server, which you advise to do: the target URL, where I'm currently forwarding the mask domain (which fails in IE), is a third party site for which I do not know IP address. What would I point the A-record to in this case please?
Any advice would be highly appreciated. Have a great day.
