The domain didn't resolve because at the time probably because it was an hour-old 
domain name.

My request was that since they do a redirect anyway on 
http://blog.beltane.com  -->  http://blog.beltane.com/blog     (So why again do we do 
that?)

Then I also want to have a redirect for the admin pages
http://forge.blogtower.com   -->  http://forge.blogtower.com/admin

As the way it sits, if someone types in http://forge.beltane.com they get 




And you'll note a list of resellers (i.e. competitors) on their there and I'm not one 
of them.
And like my other request, this is a simple 10 minute trivial fix.

I do have it CNAMEd (it's actually A records to avoid the slow CNAME overhead), as in 
the instructions as the proper way to do it.  Currently the only fix is to bounce the 
admin pages off of my server and do the redirect here, but there is no reason to cause 
the visitor to wait while the internet bounces them around.
