Sure I can. DNS is a hierarchical thing. Hosts are separated by dots. Everything starts with a single dot. The root domains (like .com., .net., AKA TLDs are served by root nameservers). Their childs (So-called SLDs - those are your domains like scalr.net) are served by nameservers that you, owner, choose.
Obviously any hostname must have a parent hostname. like child.parent. In this case childs are hostnames like int-mysql. But they still need a parent hostname! Otherwise they wont be resolving, even on your instances. Because /etc/resolv.conf - a file that defines nameservers, contains EC2 namesrver, that is, for sure respects DNS hierarchy. This parent is your domain that you point to Scalr nameservers. Let me know if you have any other Scalr-related questions.

I'm not sure I understand why that is needed. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "scalr-discuss" group.
