Currently we have:
I would like to reduce this to a single entry now that we have a maintainable website and the xblade server is working again.

Jody,
I see that www.geotools.org and test.geotools.org are both direct DNS A records pointing to 198.202.74.219 while geotools.org is an A record pointing at 216.98.141.250.
What change are you looking for exactly in the DNS records?

Hi Frank - thank for picking this up.
I am focused on 198.202.74.219 - and I assume that there is something on that machine that is mapping incoming requests to what is now http://test.geotools.org/.
1) I would like to update the DNS records to point to 198.202.74.219 2) configure that machines sub domain configurations to direct geotools.org to the same root/app as test.geotools.org
I am not familiar enough with how that machine is set up to know exactly what is involved.

As a preliminary step I have edited /etc/httpd/conf.d/sites/www.geotools.org.conf and modified the DocumentRoot to point to /osgeo/geotools/geotools-web/sphinx/build/html instead of /osgeo/geotools/geotools-web as it was. I have restarted apache and now www.geotools.org is the sphinx site.
This leaves the geotools.org repointing undone.

OK, I have made the following additional changes:
- Repointed the geotools.org A record to the .219 server.
- Deleted the www.geotools.org A record.
- Added a www.geotools.org CNAME record pointing to geotools.org
- Added a geotools.org VirtualHost in /etc/httpd/conf.d/sites/www.geotools.org.conf.
The result should be that visiting www.geotools.org results in a visit to geotools.org. And geotools.org should now be on the .219 server within six hours once the DNS change has propagated.
I'm going to close this, but please poke me hard if things are broken in six hours. My phone, etc is in the wiki under the SAC page.
Going to guess that SAC was not the correct component for this one. We basically need to udpate the DNS entry.
