Hello, I recently bought a server from a company called www.omgserv.com and they offer a dedicated IP, I have already talked about it but sadly I am not great at networks or custom IP addresses and I tend to get confused, and it takes a while to propagate so I don't want all the time going into something that is already done wrong if you know what I mean. What I am trying to do is make my server have a custom IP of "prison.thecodus.com" as well as my IP being so far from the server "minecraft122.omgserv.com:12940".

Before, I contacted them and this is what they had said.

Hello,

Please go to your DNS manager, add a CNAME field as following :

subdomain : server
host : minecraftXXX.omgserv.com

Then add a SRV field as following :

subdomain : _minecraft._tcp.play
Priority : 3600
Weight : 5
Target/Host : server.yourdomain.com

Then please wait between 3 minutes and 48h (propagation time (TTL).
If you can set your TTL, set it to 180 before add your CNAME and SRV field.

Best Regards,
The Technical Support Team


I use the Enjin DNS service as I have had no problems (but sadly this is my first time) with it, and was wondering if I have done it right by Enjin's standard and set up.


Just want to note that I know they said a priority of 3600 but I can't even go over 99, as well as the SRV settings won't save.

Any help?

Sorry @staff but I sadly still need help, I am still unsure about it all and it's been around 2 days since I updated it.

I asked again from my host and this is what they've said:
Host:
Hello,

You can't use "prison" on both CNAME and SVR field.
Please use "sever", for example, on your CNAME. In your "target" field please enter server.yourdomain.com.

We aren't sure that you enter "minecraft122.omgserv.com" please check out.

Best Regards,
The Technical Support Team




I have tried what they did in reply and ended up with this:


Can someone tell me if I did something wrong?


Thanks if so!

Alright then you must change the IP and port to the server you would like for it to connect to.

It's always the same IP, just it goes up in different port numbers.

Oh okay.
End result:
Thanks so much! This has been bothering me for days!


Edit: It works but it redirects to 212.83.191.122, which is not my server.

Either one works, however, when I try to change it, I get this error:

Once you followed all the STEPS, make sure to wait at least 24 hours for the IP to work, usually takes 0 - 2 hours

You current IP: minecraft122.omgserv.com:12930

That is not a dedicated IP because the port is '12930' instead of '25565'

ask your host for a your actual dedicated IP not your subdomain

I don't need one, they can be generated from the control panel by just a click. Right now, I have two:
212.83.191.122:40464 & 212.83.191.122:40465

You have set it up wrong,

where it says IP ADDRESS/DOMAIN you should put the server the actual server IP in,
for example: '192.39.294.29:25565'

for _service
'_minecraft'

and for _protocol
'_tcp.prison'


set the record type to A (Address)

and then set the TRAGET to 'prison'

Excuse me if you cant even let me go on your server to explain. Nobody will help.. -.- I was just explaining and then you kicked me and whitelisted me, dont expect anyone to help after you come crying that your server doesnt have a proper ip or a good capacity. Remember that..

1. Server is in W.I.P and you also advertised on my thread, which is also very unrelated to the post thanks very much.
2. Server has good capacity, you seem to know nothing at all apart from basic DNS settings.
