How to configure DNS with Comcast service?
hello --
i have the following setup:
- Static IP with Comcast service
- Comcast cable modem in bridge mode connected to an Airport Extreme
- My domain registrar is medietemple: example.com
- I want to use a mac mini running server and making it accessible from the internet
I am not sure if i understand properly what i need to do. i set an A record with my domain registrar for mini.example.com pointing at the static IP provided by comcast. if i do a reverse DNS lookup it returns something like somenumber.hsd1.ca.comcast.net. a regular DNS lookup resolves the IP address to mini.example.com.
is that all i need to do? it seems to me that i would have to do something with Comcast as well, but i am not certain and would appreciate some feedback from someone with experience with this.
thank you in advance for your time.
patrick.
