Remote Hosting with DNS

    ** At least I think that's the right title.

    I just got word from a client that they have a domain they want used, but still want to host on my server.

    The domain is with godaddy and my host is with 1&1 (I'm buying a (mt) GS soon.).

    I have access to their godaddy account, but have no clue how to get this going, could anyone explain this to me? Or link me to a tutorial/article?

    Thanks =]

    the easiest way to do it is to change the A records to your ip. This way if they type the domain name it goes right to your hosting.

    so:
    domain.com A record to your ip
    www.domain.com A record to your ip

    Aha, thank you.

    I saw it on the list, but didnt want to fiddle with it before.

    I have changed the IP. Thank you.
