I'd like to know how I can use DNS to do something like make a CNAME record that points the same address to different addresses based on the port used.
mail.example.org on port 80 points to ghs.google.com
mail.example.org on port 995 points to pop.gmail.com
mail.example.org on port 587 poitns to smtp.gmail.com
I am simply wanting to map on mydomain.com to anotherdomain.com. So i setup a CNAME on mydomain.com. Once propagated mydomain is not being picked up and is defaulting to the cpanel successfully installed screen.
I have tried this on another of our servers and this does work.
So my question is: can you use a CNAME to map mydomain.com to anotherdomain.com without having to add the mydomain.com to the apache VirtualHost ServerAlias?
It does seem like you can as i have this working on one server - is there an apache setting somewhere to block this?
We have Livezilla tracking on our site, and saw some suspicious activity this afternoon from the Netherlands, about 5 connections from the same IP address, they now appear to have put in a cname record/copied our site for http://wiiee.nl/design.html to our site. Does anyone know what they're doing/trying to do?
I am seriously confused mainly because of the way it was explained in my training at work. Can someone please give me an explantion of the difference between creating a cname record and using a domain pointer? My understanding is that they both effectively do the same thing which is allow one ip address to be used for different domains.
Extra marks given for an easy to understand analogy as i'm definately a visual learner.
The Non-Profit I work for uses IXWebhosting for our webhost and to manage email accounts. For the past 2 months whenever we send emails to anyone @baaqmd.gov, we receive CNAME bounceback errors. I have contacted IXWebhosting and they say that their DNS server's aren't registering baaqmd.gov and that I need to contact baaqmd.gov. Well I've been in constant contact with baaqmd.gov's IT guy and they are receiving emails just fine from outside agencies. In fact, when I send a test email using GMAIL to baaqmd.gov, they receive it just fine.
To further confuse me, we receive emails fine from BAAQMD.gov.
I am trying to change the cname through a batch.. It is successfully done for English language but I want to use Arabic language. When I am using Arabic it appear like this "????".
I have a domain hosted in a external pool of servers.I must set a dns record for www.domain.tld and domain.tld (without www). It must be done using cname.The www.domain.tld , works fine.
Ex:www.domain.tld IN CNAME xyz.otherdomain.tld.
But I am not able to set a DNS record for a root of domain.
Ex: domain.tld IN CNAME xyz.otherdomain.tld. neither domain.tld IN CNAME www.domain.tld.
The PPA didn't allow me.It say that the host field is mandatory.
When I create a CNAME record for domain, and then trying to load it, it goes to default website. It was working fine before, all old CNAME records are working fine.
Tried reconfigure-all but it doesn't fix the problem. I'm using 11.5.30 Update #44
I'm trying to install HyperVM (I know, it isn't great, but need something quick) but need to unblock ports 8888 and 8887. I have no idea on how to do this via SSH. I've looked on Google, but nothing.
If you have a suggestion for another VPS panel which you think is much better than HyperVM and is free, please let me know. I might aswell install that then.
I have my server set up with the smtp daemon running on port 125, and assp listening on ports 25 and 26, and forwarding to port 125 if the mail passes. This setup has been working for months and months. Already today I've received several emails.
I just attempted to send an email, however, and thunderbird could not connect to port 26. (I use an alternate port because my ISP blocks port 25 except to their mail servers)
So I thought that assp had stopped running. Attempted to go to myip:55555, but the page would not load. Now I really thought assp was broken. SSH'd into server and was able to telnet to localhost, port 26 without an issue. Was also able to lynx [url] without an issue.
Since I'm able to log in to all of these weird ports via SSH but not from my local computer, I'm apt to think that they are blocking the ports (for some reason).
Is there any way I can test this theory? Nothing has changed on my side firewall-wise, and the poor girl at the ISP company didn't even know what a port was. I would like to be 100% sure before I give them another call demanding to speak to someone higher up...
I've installed Darwin Streaming Server on a brand new server (vps). But, what do you know, the RTSP and MP3 streaming TCP ports are not defined in the etc/services file of the server.
Is this normal? Should I have an issue with the service provider?
I'm behind the firewall on a public computer and all online port scan tests I've tried show that ALL ports on a computer I'm using are closed. Is this possible? I've been previously succesfully uploaded some files through cpanelproxy.net to get access to my site, for which opened port 80 was needed.
