# finux.tech — IONOS → Cloudflare nameserver cutover (paste-ready)

Updated: 2026-09-25 01:35 ET

## Status (Cloudflare side — done)

| Item | Value |
|------|--------|
| Pages project | `finux-tech` |
| Live now | https://finux-tech.pages.dev |
| Frost Wallet | https://finux-tech.pages.dev/apps/frost-wallet/ |
| FrostBytes | https://finux-tech.pages.dev/FrostBytes/ |
| Frosster Wallet | https://finux-tech.pages.dev/apps/wallet/ |
| Temporal demo | https://finux-tech.pages.dev/temporal |
| Custom domains `finux.tech` + `www` | Attached, **PENDING** until NS change |
| Zone status | Pending (still on IONOS NS) |

Cloudflare DNS already has CNAMEs → `finux-tech.pages.dev` (proxied) for `@`, `www`, `explorer`, `join`.

## Public DNS right now (blocker)

NS still IONOS:

```
ns1025.ui-dns.org
ns1034.ui-dns.de
ns1056.ui-dns.biz
ns1098.ui-dns.com
```

`A finux.tech → 34.111.179.208` (old host) → https://finux.tech returns **404**.

**Do not claim apex live until the steps below complete.**

---

## DO THIS IN IONOS (required)

1. Log in to **IONOS** → **Domains** → **finux.tech**
2. Open **Nameserver** / **DNS** settings
3. Choose **Use custom nameservers** (not IONOS default)
4. Set **exactly** these two (remove the four `ui-dns.*` entries):

```
eloise.ns.cloudflare.com
lloyd.ns.cloudflare.com
```

5. **Save.** Wait 15 minutes–48 hours (often under 1 hour).
6. Optional before flip: copy any **MX / SPF / DKIM / DMARC** TXT from IONOS into Cloudflare DNS so email keeps working.

## After NS propagate

No more IONOS DNS edits needed. Cloudflare already has:

| Type  | Name     | Target               | Proxy   |
|-------|----------|----------------------|---------|
| CNAME | @        | finux-tech.pages.dev | Proxied |
| CNAME | www      | finux-tech.pages.dev | Proxied |
| CNAME | explorer | finux-tech.pages.dev | Proxied |
| CNAME | join     | finux-tech.pages.dev | Proxied |

Then https://finux.tech and https://www.finux.tech should go green (SSL auto).

## Alternate (not preferred): stay on IONOS DNS

Only if you refuse NS change — in IONOS DNS zone:

| Type          | Host | Value                |
|---------------|------|----------------------|
| CNAME         | www  | finux-tech.pages.dev |
| ALIAS/ANAME/@ | @    | finux-tech.pages.dev | (only if IONOS offers ALIAS/ANAME)

Apex plain CNAME is often blocked at IONOS — prefer Cloudflare NS.

## Verify

```bash
dig NS finux.tech +short
# expect: eloise.ns.cloudflare.com / lloyd.ns.cloudflare.com

curl -I https://finux.tech
curl -I https://finux.tech/apps/frost-wallet/
curl -I https://finux.tech/FrostBytes/
```
