			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Some people aren&#8217;t aware that for Rackspace Cloud Servers they also offer DNS which is pretty handy. The setup however is a little odd and the interface different to any other DNS/zone editor I&#8217;ve used. There&#8217;s a number of KB entries under The Rackspace Cloud control panel as well.</p>
<p>A quick guide on how to enter the details to get it to work. If you login, access your server and click DNS you&#8217;ll first need to add the domain name, in these examples domain.com. Once done click on the domain and then you can add away. You can&#8217;t edit, well if you call delete and add editing then yes you can.</p>
<p>So, for an A record:</p>
<p><code>Name: domain.com<br />
Content: 1.2.3.4<br />
Priority: 10<br />
TTL: 300<br />
Type: A</code></p>
<p>And a CNAME record:</p>
<p><code>Name: cname.domain.com<br />
Content: another.domain.co.uk<br />
Priority: 10<br />
TTL: 300<br />
Type: CNAME</code></p>
<p>For sub-domains you have to put the full domain in rather than just the sub-domain so:</p>
<p><code>Name: sub.domain.com<br />
Content: 1.2.3.4 (or a CNAME)<br />
Priority: 10<br />
TTL: 300<br />
Type: A</code></p>
<p>For MX records they say just use your IP as the content:</p>
<p><code>Name: domain.com<br />
Content: 1.2.3.4<br />
Priority: 10 (increment for additional MX entries)<br />
TTL: 300<br />
Type: MX</code></p>
<p>I think however you can also do this:</p>
<p><code>Name: domain.com<br />
Content: 10 mail.domain.com (assuming you have a standard A record setup with IP called mail)<br />
Priority: 10<br />
TTL: 300<br />
Type: MX</code></p>
<p>That&#8217;s it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve decided to take a leap and try moving all the sites I host into the cloud. Currently I&#8217;ve got a dedicated server but it doesn&#8217;t really do a lot most of the time and the pay for usage idea appeals. I&#8217;ve got a cloud server over at Mosso (soon to be The Rackspace Cloud) running CentOS 5.3 and I&#8217;m also in the process of getting Railo server / Resin running to handle the CFML stuff. So far it&#8217;s going OK.</p>
<p>Few things that I needed to get resin to compile, like gcc, glibc-devel, openssl-devel, openssl but aside from that pretty easy. I&#8217;ll try and write up a step by step guide when it&#8217;s working.</p>
