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 :)
