You will need to set your domain to use a different name server setting in order to turn stealth forwarding off. If you do not care where your domain is pointing to, then you may want to set your domain to use our parking services. To do this, please follow these steps:

Please be aware that it might take some time for the new settings to propagate especially if your computer or your ISP (Internet Service Provider) has cached the old name server settings.

Yes, using our DNS would override the stealth forwarding, effectively turning it off. When you switch over to DNS, you will see the * move from the Stealth Forwarding tab to the DNS tab, indicating it is now the active setting.

How do I set up DNS for my domain?

To set up DNS for your domain, please follow these steps:

Sign in to your Dynadot account.
Select "My Domains" from the left-side menu bar and click "Manage Domains" in the drop-down.
Check the box next to your domain name(s) and click on the "Action" button.
Choose "DNS Settings" from the "Action" list.
On the DNS Settings page, select the "Dynadot DNS" setting from the top drop-down menu.
Choose the "Record Type" you want to use from the drop-down menu, then enter the IP Address or Target Host of your web server in the text box.
If you have an Email Server or MX Record available for your domain email, enter the priority (otherwise known as distance) and the hostname in the subsequent text boxes.
You can also specify subdomain records in the "Subdomain Records(optional)" section the same way you do to the "Domain Record(optional)".
Press the "Save Settings" button to save your changes.

Please be aware that it might take some time for your name server changes to propagate.

There are certain steps for each record type as well, the most common are:

A record:

DKIM:

SPF:

Note: If you have been instructed to add an "@", this simply means that the record should be entered under the "Domain Record (optional)" section. The "@" itself should not be entered.
