DNS and Windows Azure redirection
efonsecab said 1 year, 1 month ago:
I have an application in windows azure, and I’ve been trying to redirect my godaddy domain to use the application.
I already verified the domain in windows azure, and created a CName that redirects the www to the windows azure site, but still it keeps going to godaddy and showing me the godaddy’s “Comming soon” page

You’ve mentioned setting up a CNAME, did you adjust the A records at all? Typically the CNAME will only effect things like the ‘WWW’ version of the domain and not the domain itself. If it’s only something that’s done via the CNAME for ‘WWW’ then you should try forwarding your domain to http://www.yourdomain.tld:

I’ve tried forwarding mydomain.tld to http://www.mydomain.tld and it’s not working.
And even it worked, I do not want to show the www. in the address bar.
So how to point @ in CNAME or a similar case where @ points to an address and not to an IP!?

It looks like you should be able to use an A record to point your domain. You may want to check out this article at:
