@johnpoz:
what is the bank fqdn… Did you validate that it resolves and is in the table for your alias?
Why would you need to hide the fqdn of some bank... That is like not wanting to post this website I search for stuff on is www.google.com -- but keep that on the DL ;)
For example I bank with chase, they are www.chase.com, but that is also a cname... See
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;www.chase.com. IN A
;; ANSWER SECTION:
www.chase.com. 3571 IN CNAME wwwbcchase.gslb.bankone.com.
wwwbcchase.gslb.bankone.com. 3571 IN A 159.53.84.126
and then might get redirected to some other fqdn in your browser, etc.. So you need to validate that your alias is populating with the IP your actually going to, etc.
I should have asked if it was ok to name the bank in question, which is Bank of America.
I was not able to validate that it resolves, in the table I put bankofamerica.com and secure.bankofamerica.com for the fqdn.
The bookmark I have in my browser is my login page - secure.bankofamerica.com/myaccount/etc - I got that bookmark by going to www.bankofamerica.com and using the link to login.
When I ping bankofamerica.com it returns IP 171.161.203.100 … should I be using that instead of a fqdn in the alias table?
Thanks!
