ok, trying to come up with a strategy here. I need to setup a subdomain for staging, based on your suggestion here's what I'm thinking:


dns_rr_creator 'create DNS RR for our server based on env' do
  rr [node.chef_environment, node['site']].join('.')
  ip node['ip_address']
end

Ya, thats basically what I've done too. The only tricky part is 'ip_address' as that can be.. a pain especially if you are on EC2 or Rackspace. You need to make sure you pick the right one =)
