Google Domain Assistance
Hey all!
A friend of mine purchased a domain through google. Thing is, she is a realtor and her website is hosted on one of those standard realtor hosting services. No biggie, I figured she can just forward her domain. She gave me her username and password but when I log in, I cannot find where we could just forward her domain to her realtor website. It looks like everything is integrated into Google and there's no way to get it out.
Am I missing something? Has anyone does this?

To access your Advanced DNS settings, please follow these steps:
Log in to your account at https://www.google.com/a/cpanel/your...ngsAdvancedDns. Be sure to replace 'your_domain.com' with your actual domain name.
To make changes to your DNS settings, sign into your DNS console with the login information provided on this page.
When you access Advanced DNS settings, you'll be directed away from Google, and to the domain registration partner that registered your domain name. This is currently available in English only.

^ Thanks. I was actually able to figure it out. Their help didn't really help anything. Just played around with a few settings, was able to find the DNS console (which is outside of Google as mentioned above), and messed with a few options to get it to work. The problem is their help guides your where to go... but not what to do when you're in there. I've never seen anything made so unnecessarily complicated before. I told her to use Network Solutions or 1and1 to register the domain... but she didn't listen. Oh well... too late now and it's working.
Thanks
Thanks
