[HCoop-Help] Need help with domtool configuration

[Aarjav Trivedi]

With the domaindirective, www.ridecell.com does not seem to mean the same as ridecell.com

I have tried a bunch of ways to fix that but haven't been able to find one that works.

Couod you tell me what the right way to do that is?

Thanks!

[dom] adds directives appropriate for the most common scenarios.  You 
should use [domain] instead if you want the domain to live primarily 
elsewhere.  Switching [dom] to [domain] should leave your configuration 
almost complete.  You will need to add nameserver information to end up 
with a valid overall record, and you should be able to consult the 
DomTool/Examples wiki page for that.
