How to open 3 DNS type A records on namecheap?

[Divvy]

Hello guys,

Does anyone here uses namecheap?
I need to open 3 DNS type “A†records, can someone help me with that?

I need to:

Open 3 DNS type “A†records:

1. Host name “www†– needs to point to IP: 66.6.21.144 
This will enable users to access your site on www.enigmaw.com (exact URL)

2. Host name: @ – needs to point to IP: 66.6.21.144
This will enable users to access your site on enigmaw.com (without the “wwwâ€)

3. Host name: * – needs to point to IP: 66.6.21.144
This will enable users to access your site on X.enigmaw.com (with any prefix)

Can someone give me exactly steps?

Thanks,
Divvy

Hi Divvy, You were wrong by describing the * @ or www. Remember: @ and * always target root. so @ or * is the same. You are actually asking about CNAM records.

* points all the undeclared or undefined subdomains to ip you set
@ points the domain name i.e. example.com to the ip u set
www points the domain name with www i.e. www.example.com to the ip u set.
