Hello All,
Long time no see.. Yes.. the BBS has been down for a while for various reasoons I will not go into.
Wonderng if anyone has run into this issue.
I have a domain registered through godaddy.com (http://kk4qbn.com)
GoDaddy has no issues accessing my webserver with this domain, BUT no other services will work.
I'v even tried messing with some of the setup under
godaddy to no avail.
Why is it not letting me server ports 21-*** (BBS ports other than 80)
Do I need access to my own nameservers? and if so, is that something that could be provided here?

So right now, one cal access my web presence using the kk4qbn.com
domain name, but no other ports will work.. I've been racking my brain
on this one.
Um... I'm not really sure what you're asking, but it sounds like you may have some ports blocked by your ISP or a firewall or NAT gateway issue. Try using this page to help determine which TCP ports are actually reachable at your public IP address: http://cvs.synchro.net/scanmyports.ssjs
No, not normally. Probably best to just test initially using your public IP address anyway. If you're not sure what your public IP address is, read this: http://wiki.synchro.net/faq:tcpip#public_ip
Why is it not letting me server ports 21-*** (BBS ports other than

That's not a DNS issue. Is the BBS on the same IP as the webserver?
I need more information, but DNS doesn't care about ports, unless you're using SRV records (which are irrelevant for BBSs anyway).

No Rob, The BBS has been up for some time, using synchronets dyndns for services.. all ports are forwarded under NAT correctly. I've tested a service like the one shown above, and as I stated only port 80 works from my kk4qbn.com address.. if I use my dyn address everything is fine.

yeah yeah.. thanks.. but no thanks.. I'm sure you deal with shit tons of people but I'm not new and this does'nt help..

The BBS IS the webserver.
I need more information, but DNS doesn't care about ports, unless you're using SRV records (which are irrelevant for BBSs anyway).
Thats all that I could see to use were SRV records that made any sense. its acting as if godaddy is blocking all ports but 80.

I have a guess. Are you using an HTTP URL Redirect with GoDaddy? I have that option with my 1and1 hosting. It is really useful if you want to host a webpage from your house, but are on a residential connection where port 80 is blocked. For example, I could say http://bbs.kd3.us points to http://68.15.38.238:81 and it would sneak around the port block. But it would only strictly work for port 80/HTTP. I could also point http://bbs.kd3.us to http://kd3net.synchro.net and it would be doing the same thing, just not sneaking around a port 80 block.
is an A Record pointing kk4qbn.com to 50.96.167.229 or maybe a CName pointing kk4qbn.com to kk4qbn.synchro.net. However, the CName might be tricky, as it is a generally accepted rule that you shouldn't make a CName for the top level record of your fully qualified domain name (ie. a CName record for kk4qbn.com could have unforeseen trouble, but a CName record like bbs.kk4qbn.com would be solid).
Not sure...but this last week, I had to switch webhosting providers to save money (it'll save about $100 or so a year, and I can add additional domains, with only a domain fee). I ended up losing the 3 original
website domains I had, and had to register 3 new ones. Then, I had to go in and modify over 600 HTM files total combined from each domain.
Does this help?
# host kk4qbn.synchro.net
kk4qbn.synchro.net has address 50.96.167.229
# host kk4qbn.com
kk4qbn.com has address 50.63.202.12
Unless you are actually *hosting* a server with godaddy (and not just using them for domain name services), they don't have the power to block ports.
Thanks Ken. Wow.. With the right information it was fixed in about 30 seconds.. I was over comlicating things WAY too much.
I use the SBBS webserver, and just paid 99 cents for this domain, even K>though it may be slow, whatever.. I don't expect to have too many visitors, K>its's all working correctly now..
Ok, you've given much ideas on where I'm making a few mistakes and do believe K>that I hopefully can rectify it. Thanks Ken. Wow.. With the right information K>it was fixed in about 30 seconds.. I was over comlicating things WAY too much

That guess is correct, but it was'nt forwarded because port 80 was blocked, it just automatically gave that option upon signup?!?

both of them seem to be pointing to the proper IP now...
Name: kk4qbn.synchro.net
Address: 50.96.167.229
Well, I've spent the money now, and got everything rolling. I'm not
going to make changes now. Thanks for the note, though.

I've found your problem. Your godaddy DNS is setup incorrectly. A bit of sussing around:
C:\Users\Tony>ping kk4qbn.com

He is, I discovered that when doing some troubleshooting on his domain. :)

Yall got me in the correct area.. I failed to change a cname record and instead was using their stupid web forwarding, and thought I had to
create a srv record for every service.. when I finnaly found out what
was wrong, it was a 2 second fix.. now I know how to create anything I need.. It's been a while since I've had any domain names, and a bit has changed in the way they are setup.. actually much easier than before..
I was just lost for a bit :)

I'm not using it now that yall have directed me to the right settings,
but I can see it being very useful in the future for a couple projects
I'm thinking of.
I understand fully.. I tried jumping on the Amazon AWS bandwagon myself at on
truthfully I think some of the stuff I did caused more confusion with Marks K>simple setup then what good it done.

I went ahead and zapped the games, since the message network was
gone. I don't even know what I did with the score utility for it now.
But, I'll zap that from the setup as well.
