What I am looking to do is to redirect all traffic from www.domain.com to www1.domain.com(subdomain of domain.com) via DNS.I am attempting to move from a local server (domain.com) to a GoDaddy server (www1.domain.com) which is a VPS, with the intention of completely shutting down the local server after the move. I have successfully moved the site's contents to the subdomain (www1.domain.com) and would like to direct all traffic to domain.com now to www1.domain.com. The DNS is controlled here locally, not by Godaddy.I previously tried setting a CNAME record like so: www IN CNAME www1.domain.com.But that failed terribly. Can anyone please provide some insight as to what other solutions there may be? Would something like this work instead? The IP address 1.2.3.4 would be the IP address of the Godaddy server.@ IN A 1.2.3.4www IN CNAME www1.domain.com
DNS redirect for domain to subdomain
