Setup
PURLs (Persistent Uniform Resource Locators) are Web addresses that act as permanent identifiers in the face of a dynamic and changing Web infrastructure. Instead of resolving directly to Web resources, PURLs provide a level of indirection that allows the underlying Web addresses of resources to change over time without negatively affecting systems that depend on them. This capability provides continuity of references to network resources that may migrate from machine to machine for business, social or technical reasons.

Adding a DNS A record at GoDaddy and Enom
An A record associates a domain name with an IP address. For example, www.purls.tv may point you to 75.144.212.61, to point to a new IP Address, point your A record to 208.109.218.112. This will now point your domain name to traxmail.com.
If your registrar is Go Daddy, we'll take you step by step through adding an A record.
Before you attempt to make this addition, you'll need two pieces of information:
1. Your new host name. From the example above, the host name would be 'traxmail.com', using 208.109.218.112 as the A record.
2. The IP address. This will be a set of 4 numbers separated by periods. From the example above, the IP address would be 208.109.218.112.
