Get web interface to use domain instead of server ip address

[nattivillin]

How can we accomplish this?

I would much rather have [ View http://icustompc.com?cmtAction=View&cmtRecId=FED6 ]

instead of [ View http://98.102.185.222:4961?cmtAction=View&cmtRecId=FED6 ]

showing up on peoples email.

Is it as simple as editing the entry in commit, or do we also need an a record pointing to the IP address at the domain level?

ServerIP=www.icustompc.com

Well, if you are going to change your address to an A record like " CommitCRM.icustompc.com", then, yes, that needs to be resolvable via public DNS, else it won't work when a client tries to access it.

You cant create an A record that points to a port, how will it know where what port to use?

Sorry, didn't realize that was what you were asking for. You still have to use the port # in the URL if you are running on a non-standard port (Like CommitCRM is by default).

...Or you could make port 80 hit a redirect page that would redirect you to the correct port.

gotcha.

DO i put the ip in twice like;

[Pref]
ServerPort=4961
TimeOutAmount=15
ServerIP=www. CommitCRM.icustompc.com:4961

Update - I had to remove the www for it to work!

[Pref]
ServerPort=4961
TimeOutAmount=15
ServerIP=clients.icustompc.com:4961
