17:54	donsizemore	@pameyer thanks for the suggestion re: the external IP. i would've preferred the CNAME to projects.iq. if we point the DNS technical contact info Harvard's way, do you think they'd register it for us?
17:57	pameyer	@donsizemore I think you were on the right path with the vhost.
17:58	pameyer	I'm not sure about asking them to register the DNS - I haven't had any interactions with the IQSS web hosting and/or OpenScholar folks
17:58	pameyer	couldn't hurt to ask thought
18:01	donsizemore	well, we had the domain pointed, we were getting the default apache page. better to make it a CNAME for projects.iq if possible
18:03	pameyer	I might've been confused, but I thought I was getting a 186.something IP that looked to be a parking domain
18:04	pameyer	… 184.something ; was confused
18:05	pameyer	yeah - for me it's still resolving to a registrar parking page
18:07	donsizemore	from UNC I get 184.168.131.241
18:08	pameyer	and yeah - CNAME would seem to make sense; but I spend little enough time configuring DNS that I tend to defer to folks who know more about it than me
18:08	pameyer	I get the same IP from HMS
18:09	pameyer	from HMS, I get a 302 redirect to https://shortener.godaddy.com
18:09	pameyer	are you seeing something else from UNC?
18:20	donsizemore	i get a 301 to projects.iq

18:21	pameyer	@donsizemore - that's odd. DNS propagation time maybe?
18:21	donsizemore	we need jan postel
18:22	pameyer	I don't even know if that's a person or a technical term
18:22	donsizemore	^jon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Postel
18:22	pameyer	gotcha - agreed :)
18:24	donsizemore	and yes, i blame propagation. each server determines its own caching windows, so timely changes are best effort
18:28	pameyer	Do you know roughly when the change was made? I usually try to budget 24hr for DNS propagation, even though the few times I've made changes there it's usually been much faster

18:55	pdurbin	donsizemore: are you and Pete on some mailing list I'm not? :)
19:01		pameyer joined #dataverse
19:10	pameyer	pdurbin: at some point when enough email addresses get added to the cc list it's effectively an email list, right?
19:41		pameyer joined #dataverse
19:53	pdurbin	right
19:53	pdurbin	:)
