CNAME stands for Canonical Name for a domain. CNAME is an alias records that create association between a sub-domain and antother domain or subdomain.

And, A Record simply creates an association between a domain/sub-domain name and an IP Address.

Example CNAME
gallery.bala-krishna.com -> gallery.another-domain.com -> 64.1.236.65

you can see above CNAME require two DNS lookup to translate domain/subdomain to an IP Address. If client request for gallery.bala-krishna.com then DNS record will return gallery.another-domain.com then gallery.another-domain.com has to query DNS to translate gallery.another-domain.com into IP Address.

CNAME Record Syntax:
www? ? 14400? ? IN? ? CNAME? ? bala-krishna.com

Example A Record

gallery.another-domain.com -> 64.1.236.65

In case of gallery.another-domain.com, A record directly point to an IP Address so the DNS lookup directly returns IP Address to the client rather then domain/subdomain. hence only one DNS lookup required.

A Record Syntex:
ftp? ? ? ? 14400? ? IN? ? ? A? ? ? 67.159.45.3

I just received “Not Acceptable Error while i tried to edit post in Word Press 2.5. Earlier, It was working fine but in the previous post i get annoying error when i tried to save and continue my article. But soon i realize cause of the error. Again, the error was due to apache web server mod-security rules SecFilterEngine On. The exact text of the error is “Error 406, Not Acceptable. An appropriate representation of the requested resource /wp-admin/post.php could not be found on this server.”

Here is the quick fix the error:

1. Download .htaccess file from your root directory or create one if not exist.
2. Add following Line in .htaccess file.
3. <IfModule mod_security.c>
   <Files post.php>
   SecFilterEngine Off
   SecFilterScanPOST Off
   </Files>
   </IfModule>
4. If <IfModule mod_security.c> line already in your .htaccess file then place only <Files..></Files> block inside if module block.
5. Save file and upload file to your host root directory.
6. All done..

Update:

I would like to comment about their affliated program here. I had joined their affliated program in May at the time when i wrote this post. but after five month i have only five ready to pay signup. sometime it was around 15 signups and i am not sure how many times i reached to this extent. They have min $100 payout that never complete. I feel that they have setup a system that automatically decrease ready to pay signups or declare some registration false when you reach near to 20 signups (eq: $100). I had contacted their support but i did not received any reply. I suggest you all to use only industry leading affiliated program like commission junction if you really want transparency in the payout.
