First off this is my first time ever using BOA so I apologize if there is an obvious step, process or even concept that I missed which resulted in this rudimentary problem.
Some background: I am running a server on a cloud hosting site and I have a domain name purchased. I have been looking at different videos and tutorials but I decided to just use the quick install using BOA.sh.txt and then the boa in-stable public server.mydomain.com my@email o1. At first I was having a DNS issue where it said my domain name wasn't working properly, but I fixed that by setting A names for both server.mydomain.com and master.server.mydomain.com after which everything installed. I don't know if that is what I should have done or maybe that was the first sign there was a problem, but installation continued as normal. After saying yes to install everything the script outputed the website to my control panel and where to access to reset my password. That was at o1.server.mydomain.com/user/reset..., however when I tried to go to that website on my browser I get a DNS failed lookup. So, I tried out other things like server.mydomian.com and that opened up an under construction image which upon further investigation was what was in /var/www/nginx-default. I thought this was an improper installation but when I restarted my server and looked around, I was logged into an aegir user account and the var/aegir was there meaning everything was installed. So my question is does anyone why i cannot access o1.server.mydomain.com or what issues I might have?
Thank you to anyone who took their time to even just read this long post.

You also need a DNS entry for o1.server.mydomain.com if you don't already have one. (Or you can create a wildcard entry for *.server.mydomain.com.)

Thanks so much. I knew it had to be something really simple. I just didn't know that wild card didn't do further subdomain so *.mydomain.com only was for one length subdomain and for more i would have to do *.server.mydomiain.com and then *.o1.server.mydomain.com to get more sites.
