Domain Name Server Transfer Question
 Top

  • I recently purchased the Domain Name for my site. Got it from Register.com, and transfered the DNS over to my Hosting Site. My question here is..... Do I need to reinstall PostNuke and all the Modules I have, so that it resets to the new address? www.mydomain.com? Or will this just happen automatically as the DNS changes over and points to the sites already installed location?

    Sorry for any confusion, just trying to put 2 and 2 together. ;)
  • If I understand your message correctly then no you should not have to do anything about reinstalling your site. It will just take a few days, I believe they normally indicate three days, before the information is set to point to the new address of a site. So it may take a few days before your site is visible to the world through the domain name but you should still be able to access it through a temporary address your hosting provider gave you when you set your account up with them.

    Hope this helps.
  • Yeah, it did. It hit today. I was just making sure I wouldn't have to do anything further. I have a few bugs now that I'm tracking down and trying to fix. Didn't wish to have to start all over. Thanks for your response.
