AWS/TKL support for WordPress Network?

Hey everyone,

Forgive me if there's already an existing post explaining all of this, but I'm having some trouble configuring a network-enabled WordPress site.

Here's the steps I took:

Launched an EBS-backed WordPress instance from TKL
Enabled and configured the WordPress site using the steps in the WP codex - http://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network
I associated an elastic IP address, and tested the site. Looks good - http://107.21.238.230, and one of the mini-sites, http://107.21.238.230/bullworthy/. Although I have no option to map subdomains - it's forcing me to configure the mini-sites in directories.

But this is where I get stuck. From my GoDaddy account, I tried mapping a domain I own by setting my A record to 107.21.238.230, but after 24 hours, it doesn't work. Am I doing this wrong?

In another hosting account, I also tried pointing the domain www.bullworthy.com to http://107.21.238.230/bullworthy/ as a CNAME, which also didn't work.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Tom

Perhaps if you are using AWS mainly it would be easier to point your domains to the AWS nameservers and handle your DNS via the Hub? I don't know for sure... just putting it out there!
