False records being sent
Dump my config and nothing is present that justifies this. Double checked test results were coming from cloudflare. See attached for dig results (annotated) and config dump.
DNS records
dig malainey.com a
dig malainey.com aaaa
That’s expected behavior. Please read the following:
Is something not working?
Thanks for the quick reply, yes the site the returned is not mine. In my config I have the following
malainey.com. 1 IN CNAME curtis.malainey.com.
Which points to a page im hosting on github pages which is just my bio. The current page that is being returned is not my site, it looks like a page for some indonesian movie theater.
note if you use curtis.malainey.com directly it returns the correct site.
You can’t just add a CNAME and have it work. The origin server needs to be configured to answer to that name as well. Otherwise, it doesn’t know what site you’re looking for and may just send a default site.
So it looks like your hosting server is not configured to answer to malainey.com, only to the subdomain.
Ah so because browsers were implicitly converting my domain into the subdomain via the cname, but I am guessing that broke once i turned on dns proxy, once someone claimed the domain on github pages (which i checked someone else did claim) the new content showed up. Sigh that is annoying, I will follow up with github, thanks for the help.
