False alarm due to assumption that an address is required at zone apex #12

Open niallor opened 4 years ago

niallor commented 4 years ago

The user is prompted to enter the domain name without "www." prefix. This is the zone apex, which need not have any A or AAAA record. Treating the absence of a AAAA record here as an error, without checking that no A record is present, causes delivery of a misleading, and probably false, status message to the user.

The domain check has been broken since this thing went live. At the very least, it does lack the nuance you describe. I submitted PR #16 to address the original breakage reported in #3, which would also address this issue.
