Using URL or Stealth forwarding...

Would really appreciate some pointers... What should all of the settings be if only forwarding to another URL (i.e., there is no host)?

Thanks!

In most cases the Host in a URL forward would be the @ sign for the root domain (domain.com) as well as www (www.domain.com) The URL text box would
hold the URL you are forwarding @ and www to.

I hope this helps.

My URL forwarding doesn't work. I am using @ for www root domain, also tried "*". I noticed the A record is empty. Do I need to find and enter the zoneedit A Record? I can't find any instruction how to setup URL forwarding. It used to be simple and easy.
Does anyone has an instruction how to setup URL forwarding?

Thanks.

The domain had no nameserver records in the zone. I have added the NS links via the preferences link on the left side bar,
The forwarding should kick in within the next few hours.

thanks

Thanks. I didn't know I still need to enter nameserver "NS" since the domain was registered somewhere else. So, the key is to use "LOCAL" on NS for URL forwarding, also use "LOCAL" for MX email forwarding. The web script needs a little improvement.

Thanks again!
