I'm using Amazon S3 to host my images. My bucket is at http://images-kylabutterfield.s3.amazonaws.com/. You can see that you can view the contents of the bucket correctly. I've set up a CNAME alias through the DNS manager, so that if you go to http://images.kylabutterfield.com/, you'll actually be at http://images-kylabutterfield.s3.amazonaws.com/. It doesn't seem to be working though. If I go to http://images.kylabutterfield.com/, it says the bucket doesn't exist. Does anyone know what could be happening?
I did some test and it looks like both images.kylabutterfield.com and images-kylabutterfield.s3.amazonaws.com is resolving to the same IP. c:\>ping images-kylabutterfield.s3.amazonaws.com Pinging s3-2-w.amazonaws.com [207.171.181.229] with 32 bytes of data: C:\>ping images.kylabutterfield.com Pinging s3-2-w.amazonaws.com [207.171.181.229] with 32 bytes of data:
Did you set up the cname at Amazon? I don't know if this is relevant, but it looks like you have to set your cname up as a "distribution" at Amazon before it will work.
