Configure DNS - OS X Server Next Steps
"Configure DNS
The domain name servers your using don't have an entry for the name server.xxxxxxx.com, and therefore your clients won't be able to access your server using this name. If your organization has it's own DNS servers, ask your IT department to add a DNS entry for server.xxxxxxxx.com that resolves to address xxx.xx.xxx.82 (my static IP address). If your organization doesn't have its own DNS servers, add this entry through your ISP or with the public domain name registrar where your domain is registered."
Can anyone explain to me (in terms a novice such as myself can understand) exactly what I should do to resolve the issue?
I currently have the server connected to an Airport Extreme Base Station which is connected to a DSL modem with a static IP. My domain name registrar has my www.xxxxxxxx.com address pointing to my static IP. Should I have server.xxxxxxxx.com pointing to the IP instead? Or both? Also, when I try my www.xxxxxxxx.com address in the browser it comes up as: "Safari can't connect to the server".
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
