RE: Use Google Apps with VPS?
Actually you don't even need a VPS to use Google Apps. Just a domain with full DNS control.

You can start here: https://www.google.com/a/cpanel/domain/new

Later they have a step-by-step tutorial on how to setup your DNS records.

Below is mine:
Code:
icarrot.uni.cc (G)    MX    5:alt1.aspmx.l.google.com
icarrot.uni.cc (G)    MX    5:alt2.aspmx.l.google.com
icarrot.uni.cc (G)    MX    1:aspmx.l.google.com
icarrot.uni.cc (G)    MX    10:aspmx2.googlemail.com
icarrot.uni.cc (G)    MX    10:aspmx3.googlemail.com
docs.icarrot.uni.cc (G)    CNAME    ghs.google.com
google8c7783205c39f98d.icarrot.uni.cc (G)    CNAME    google.com
mail.icarrot.uni.cc (G)    CNAME    ghs.google.com
sites.icarrot.uni.cc (G)    CNAME    ghs.google.com
Thân,

iCarrot.

I think they have issues with all .tk domains... but strangely allow .co.cc

RE: Use Google Apps with VPS?
I get this weird message:
Quote:Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network. Please try your request again later. Why did this happen?


IP address: 90.194.113.3
Time: 2011-06-27T06:07:35Z
URL: http://www.google.com/a/cpanel/standard/...omain=true

This only gives that error if I submit an existing domain that is .tk - any other domain and I don't get this error.

Alright, I have Domain.com as domain host - should I use dns.he.net for the MX records or the DNS settings at Domain.com?

I don't know if Domain.com let you have full DNS control - if they do, you can just use their service.

However if by any chance you want to use dns.he.net to manage all your domains, then it's up to you.
