Re: DNS "A Name" Records for Third Party Providers

We have www.jobs.msstate.edu that points to the company HR uses for job
applications.  We have not had any problems with the company.  It's nice
to have that URL instead of msstate.peopleadmin.com showing up when people
apply for a position.

All,

We recently had a request for an "A name" record by a third party
provider that is looking for a "seamless" user experience.  We're a
little hesitant to give an ohio.edu name to an external party, and
wanted to find out about other user's experience.  Any caveats, lessons
learned, or experiences that we should watch out for?  Thanks!
