DNS configuration of Ciro Santilli's website by

Ciro Santilli 34 Updated 2024-11-19 Created 1970-01-01

AKA how this GitHub page gets served under the domain: cirosantilli.com

Ciro only touches this very rarely, and always forgets and go into great pain whenever a change needs to done, so it is important to document it.

The last change was of 2019-07-07, when Ciro moved from the www subdomain www.cirosantilli.com to the APEX cirosantilli.com. A redirect is setup from the www subdomain to APEX.

GoDaddy DNS entries:

Type    Name    Value                   TTL
