<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">That works fine for test.example.com. But when I go to production, I need to do it for example.com and
<a href="http://www.example.com">www.example.com</a>. How do I delegate just the A record and not the SOA, TXT, MX, SPF, and NS records, nor any of the other entries in the zone. As I recall, I can’t just delegate , as an example, <a href="http://www.example.com">www.example.com</a>,
then use a CNAME for example.com.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
