</div>Actually, if you use dig and pay really close attention you should see<br>
you request <a href="http://www.wemakednssimple.com" target="_blank">www.wemakednssimple.com</a> <<a href="http://www.sunnybliss.com" target="_blank">http://www.sunnybliss.com</a>><br>
<br>
But it returns <a href="http://wemakednssimple.com" target="_blank">wemakednssimple.com</a>. without the www. Which is wrong. A<br>
recursor will recognise this and just ignore that part of the answer<br>
(there is nothing else in the answer so you get nothing).<br>
<br>
I don't know what the cause is, but this is the result and why it<br>
doesn't work.</blockquote><div><br></div><div>I wonder if setting skip-cname to yes would solve the problem and if so, what are the implications of doing so?</div><div><br></div><div>Sincerely,</div><div>Anthony Eden </div>
