we normaly do this:

floridacaribbeanliving.com. NS ns1.provider.com.
floridacaribbeanliving.com. NS ns2.provider.com.
floridacaribbeanliving.com. A 72.xx.xx.xx
floridacaribbeanliving.com. MX (10) mail.floridacaribbeanliving.com.
floridacaribbeanliving.com. TXT "v=spf1 a mx ~all"
ftp.floridacaribbeanliving.com. A 72.xx.xx.xx
mail.floridacaribbeanliving.com. A 72.xx.xx.xx
webmail.floridacaribbeanliving.com. A 72.xx.xx.xx
www.floridacaribbeanliving.com. A 72.xx.xx.xx

- ptr does the ip range owner for us
- we use one nameserver name for all domains
- spf online for the domain
- we don't use cname

Thanks all; still working on this, but I appreciate the help.

Out of curiousity... Why don't you use CNAME?

 

[danliker]

with cname it is one request more then with a

first it calls www.domain.com the answer is domain.com
then call domain.com and get the ip

with the a name it is call www.domain.com and get the ip

it is not such a big different...
