accessing site on virtual server

Help! (Home for newbies)

I added a virtual server for site example.com
it’s root is /home/example/

The site is accessable through:
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/~example/index.html

but when I try to go to http://www.example.com or http://example.com my vps site loads instead which has it’s root in /home/

What is causing this?
Is it DNS?

Here is the DNS for that account
$ttl 38400
@ IN SOA ns1.myvps.tld. root.vps.myvps.tld. (
1200087983
10800
3600
604800
38400 )
example.com. IN NS ns1.myvps.tld.
example.com. IN NS ns2.myvps.tld.
example.com. IN A xx.xx.xx.xx
www.example.com. IN A xx.xx.xx.xx
ftp.example.com. IN A xx.xx.xx.xx
m.example.com. IN A xx.xx.xx.xx
mail.example.com. IN A xx.xx.xx.xx
example.com. IN MX 5 mail.example.com.
example.com. IN TXT "v=spf1 a mx a:example.com ip4:xx.xx.xx.xx -all"

All the xx.xx.xx.xx are the same IP which is the IP for my VPS.

In looking at the DNS for one of my sites at another host that has a cPanel install the DNS has an entry like this:
example.com. IN A 127.0.0.1

Do I need to add that?

I would like to know that myself. By the way what is this line referring to:"m.example.com. IN A xx.xx.xx.xx"??

Why do they add such an entry? That seems non-sensical to me, but maybe they’re putting it into a private view? If this were in the public view it would simply fail to work (127.0.0.1 is a non-routable address, that always means “this machine”–if you gave it to outsiders their browser would try to find the website on their own machine).

The de facto standard mobile domain name. Virtualmin Professional has a mobile accessible theme that can be triggered either by logging in with a recognized mobile device, or by hitting an m. address.
