  Hi there, we set up domain mapping for our blog at our domain http://joeginsberginc.com via Network Solutions (who is our registrar) so that we could continue to use our Network Solutions email addresses for the domain. We pointed the web portion of the A record to your IP’s 72.233.69.14, 76.74.159.137, and 64.34.177.159 (they wanted IP’s not your name server names).

  I did this yesterday and it should be working by now.

  What am I doing wrong?

  Thanks Much,
  Tolga

  A Records cannot be mapped here.

  You’ll need to map the domain following this guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/

  Once the domain is mapped, you can set MX records to direct your email back to Network Solutions via our Custom DNS panel: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/custom-dns/
