Technical Woes

- Markings of The Pink Lady 1945- 2006 »

By Ryan on Thursday, August 24 2006, 19:52 - Permalink

Today's log entry has absolutely nothing to do with the Pink Lady aircraft. Rather, I though it might interest some of you to read about some early technical aspects regarding the creation of this website...

Domain names that use the .fr TLD such as this one can take some time to set up, due to AFNIC's famous ZoneCheck system and DNS propagation time.

The domain was created using the full1.gandi.net and full2.gandi.net forwarding nameservers which are very reliable for creating a .fr domain at Gandi.net. The actual domain itself took about 1 day to be registered at the registry and made visible on the internet.

My first idea was to put the blog on a subdomain, and leave the domain unused. However, this just looked lame, and so rather than having an address like www.blog.pinklady.fr I decided to configure my DNS to put the blog's IP directly on the domain itself. Of course switching the DNS from full1 and 2 to ns7.gandi.net and custom2.gandi.net took another day to be verified by AFNIC and to propagate the internet.

So even though I created thepinklady.fr a while ago, the blog you are looking at now took some time to actually appear where it is.

Technical Woes Part II

So today I decided that I no longer wanted to simply forward e-mails sent to thepinklady.fr to one of my (6) other e-mail addresses, but that I actually wanted to have a mail server attached to this domain so that I could have a fully functional POP/SMTP e-mail address.

I managed to find an inexpensive MX hosting plan at a web host, and I have configured my zone file accordingly.

So at present, I have 5 e-mail addresses that can send and receive e-mail via POP that use this domain name, and 1,000 e-mail addresses that I can forward to existing e-mail accounts. I have already used up two of those POP accounts ("ryan@" and "photos@") which leaves me with three POP accounts and a whole lot of forwarding accounts.

My woes are that I am still waiting for the propagation to occur after my DNS change. My current configuration uses Gandi's custom DNS and two MX servers that are not Gandi's. This should not cause any problems, but I will not be able to tell for sure until tomorrow. All I know, is that for now I can only send mail with thepinklady.fr when I am logged into my host's server directly.

Technical Woes 2.1

I Just dumped my mail host, because 24 hours after configuring my zone file with the MX records, my mails were not being processed by my server. As it turns out, the web host I chose, was known for having issues with their mail servers, which I did not discover until I paid some 5 Euros for the installation of my server.

I therefore turned to the Gmail for my domain service, which I am testing in its Beta version. I am so far very pleased with how Google's mail service works.

So, my zone file now resembles the following:

@ 28800 IN MX 1 ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. @ 28800 IN MX 3 ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. @ 28800 IN MX 3 ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. @ 28800 IN MX 5 ASPMX2.GOOGLEMAIL.COM. @ 28800 IN MX 5 ASPMX3.GOOGLEMAIL.COM. @ 28800 IN MX 5 ASPMX4.GOOGLEMAIL.COM. @ 28800 IN MX 5 ASPMX5.GOOGLEMAIL.COM. www 28800 IN A 217.70.184.3 googleb9e3492971605ef6.thepinklady.fr. 28800 IN CNAME google.com.

As you can see, it has changed dramatically from my first comment, when it was a simple default set-up on full1.gandi.net and full2.gandi.net.

Another difference is that I now have 25 e-mail addresses that I can use for this domain (thepinklady.fr), and some 2,000 forwarding addresses.

Ten years ago, if you want information about fashion you would go to big cities to see if others designers. But now we did not have it. The network has changed our lifestyle. Lifestyle is setting up a new revolution.
