That's the eventual plan, but right now, muug.ca and muug.mb.ca are two distinct servers, hosted in different parts of the city. The muug.mb.ca server is the one that's still handling e-mail, including the Mailman mailing lists. (That's the reason e-mail to this list is still working despite the fact that muug.ca is currently shut down.) Gilbert On 09/09/2016 4:35 PM, Hartmut W Sager wrote:
Is my belief/solution here too simple? Why not just edit the (darned) DNS zone file of muug.ca <http://muug.ca> and give it exactly the same type A records (for IPv4) as found in the zone file of muug.mb.ca <http://muug.mb.ca>, assuming that you do actually want both muug.mb.ca <http://muug.mb.ca> and muug.ca <http://muug.ca> hosted in the same place. Additional type AAAA records (for IPv6) are of course welcome to exist. Oh, you would also need to make sure that the hosting of muug.mb.ca <http://muug.mb.ca> is set up to recognize an HTTP 1.1 request for muug.ca <http://muug.ca> - merely pointing muug.ca <http://muug.ca> to the same hosting isn't quite enough.
You should also make sure that www points to the same place, either via CNAME or via an identical type A record.

I believe you have to use muug.mb.ca <http://muug.mb.ca>, and not muug.ca <http://muug.ca>. For some reason, muug.ca <http://muug.ca> resolves to a different IPv4 address (apparently hosted by les.net? <http://les.net?>). The muug.mb.ca <http://muug.mb.ca> server doesn't support IPv6, but the muug.ca <http://muug.ca> name does also yield an IPv6 address record, while muug.mb.ca <http://muug.mb.ca> doesn't. Maybe Gilbert could comment more on the discrepancy between the two sets of DNS records, and whether this is actually a problem that should be addressed.
