How do I connect Blogspot to my Google Apps?
-
I want to connect my Blogspot account to my Google Apps domain. I have told Blogger to use blog.mydomain.com yet my browser tells me this didn't work. Because of the popularity of the words "blog", "google", and "apps", googling the solution does nothing. So I figured I'd ask the experts. Any thoughts?

Answer:
You must configure your domain and create a CName record that points to ghs.google.com from your subdomain (blog in this case). Then you can use blogger's interface and tell it to use blog.mydomain.com. The instructions vary by host, but Google has a http://www.google.com/support/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=47283 on this. An alternative is to use 4 A Name records that point to Google's server's IP addresses. I have found the articles on the site http://blogging.nitecruzr.net/ informative, just be warned that there are a lot of them and it can get confusing since they all link to each other.

It's possible that your Google Apps domain has Sites enabled. Sometimes it seems to get enabled by default. Try disabling it, and then try switching your Blogger blog to use the custom domain. If this doesn't work, try asking on the Blogger Help Forum (http://help.blogger.com) - post a very specific query there including your domain URL, blog URL, and the specific error message you're getting.
