View 3 RepliesI own a domain, www.mysite.com, and wanted to create a subdomain (sub.mysite.com) but wanted to host that sub domain on another host.
In otherwords, mysite.com is on my own dedicated server, but I wanted to host sub.mysite.com on lunarpages, godaddy, or any other host.
I didn't see this ability on Godaddy or Lunarpages which leads me to the question which hosts allow me to use my own subdomain while keeping my main domain on my dedicated server?
i have 1 dedicated server, and 1 shared hosting the domain.com is hosted in dedicated server i want the subdomain sub.domain.com in other host i have try this but not working:
I. the dedicated server have whm and cpanel
in whm i go to DNS Functions --> Edit DNS Zone --> i add sub name , choose A, and enter other ip host
II. the shared hosting only have cpanel
i go to cpanel --> addons domain --> add my domain.com
then go to cpanel again --> Subdomains --> i add sub from domain.com
with above step i just got this when accessing the url [url]:
Great Success!
Apache is working on your cPanel and WHM Server
If you can see this page, then the people who manage this server have installed cPanel and WebHost Manager (WHM) which use the Apache Web server software and the Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) successfully. They now have to add content to this directory and replace this placeholder page, or else point the server at their real content.
ATTENTION!
Is the following possible, a hypothetical scenario.
If have a domain xyz.com on HOST A.
Can I set up subdomain.xyz.com on HOST B?
i have been stuck in this situation for more than a week...
the situation on my side is this:
<--
i have a domain at godaddy, and using godaddy windows hosting..
i have a website in ASP.NET, and i want to make a subdomain for my forum suppose:
forum.mydomain.com
and forward it to other host on cpanel...
-->
Other side:
<--
my friend has bought reseller hosting and have created an account for me with the name of mydomain.com.
and the server IP is x.x.x.123
-->
i logged in to my account in cpanel and created a subdomain named "forum"
then i created the subdomain on godaddy and pointed the A record of this subdomain to x.x.x.123
now when i open forum.mydomain.com.....it displays error page...
(i have kept a simple index.html file in public_html)
any solution to this problem?
i need steps to resolve this problem and what configurations i need to do on godaddy + cpanel manager....

to setup 1.domain.com to another host
I have domain (domain.com) which is on dedicate server with root access.
also have 2-nd-domain.com which is on hostgator host(where can i add domains via addon domains)
now i need to setup 1.domain.com subdomain on hostgator.
how can i do it ?
pls correct me, if i'm wrong
1. via Directadmin Subdomain Management tool (on domain.com) add "1" subdomain
2. check "DNS Management" section -> 1.domain.com is on main domain.com IP
Unfortunately there isn't any option to edit this record. i can only delete it and add manually. (i know, that i can do it via SSH - > edit config file, but i don't have enought experience to edit files via SSH. just know, few commands, how to archive, reboot, move, etc ...)
delete this record and add manually
DNS Management -> Add Domain Records ->
1.domain.com - A record =IP of hostgatore host
btw, did i need to add NS records?
3. go to 2-nd-domain.com and try to add 1.domain.com via addon domains.
hmm
it seems, that i'm doing something wrong, as i got

I want to host my site on my Dreamhost account for the IP benefit but I need to keep the high bw files on my dedi.
Anyone know how to set that in Dreamhost? And can you point how i will set the subdomain in CPanel on my server?
I am trying to setup a subdomain and/or virtual host to redirect to a specific port and path. I have setup my server with DDYNS through my domain name registar. Through the ddyns client I have set it to assign a subdomain of "outside.name.com" so that my server will have a easy name to get to instead of a dynamic ip address.
I have also setup on my registrars host records another subdomain of "inside.name.com" with a static IP address for internet network accessing to my server.My problem is that I have a service/program on my server that I need access to both internally and externally and this service can only be access through a port of 32400 and HTTP address of /web. (e.g. outside.name.com:32400/web or inside.name.com:32400/web)...
Is there a way that I can create a VirtualHost or Subdomain of "service.*.name.com" that redirects them to ":32400/web" of the hostname they're on? (e.g. service.outside.name.com automatically forwards or proxies--to keep it pretty--to service.outside.name.com:32400/web)

Wordpress installation (WPML with 3rd level domain es. site. com, fr. site. com).
I need to redirect page from subdomain to a new subdomain
Example:
esp.site.com/oldpage -> es.site.com/newpage (different subdomain)
esp.site.com/oldpage1 -> es.site.com/newpage
esp.site.com/oldpage2 -> es.site.com/newpage
Source site is very chaotic and there are no clear rule for redirection (no regex )
So I need to redirect every page but syntax:
Redirect 301 esp.site.com/oldpage http:// es.site.com/newpage
doesn't work!
which is the correct syntax ?
Can I manage all from one .htaccess file in main root (www) or should I create "esp" directory (and point old subdomain to it - one for every language) and put .htaccess in every directory with redirection ?Â
I have problem,
subdomain.domain.com - not working
www.subdomain.domain.com - working
When I creating new subdomain: subdomain2.domain.com - all working ok, I have problem only with this one domain.
I deleting domain.com, deleting dns zones, deleting account, adding domain to other account - all not working for subdomain.domain.com
I'm configuring a website for a client who has moved their web hosting to downtownhost, but is keeping their email hosting with their current provider. They do not want to configure an MX entry on DTH to autoforward email back to their current provider because they don't want their email to pass through DTH.
In order to do this, do I keep the nameserver entries on the current provider the same, and configure an http redirect to point to DTH? Or is there something else I should configure on the current provider?
I'm wondering if you can tell me something about your experience with a host/server in a different country or overseas.
My webpage will be mostly frequented by Australians.
What do you think is the advantage and the disadvantage of having a host in your own country and having one overseas?
I'm thinking about stability, traffic speed, peak hours in different time zones, customer service, ....
What are your experiences?
I was with Blue Host and their support and service was pretty bad. Servers going down all the time, and chat support was terrible. Then I moved to Host Monster and received the same kind of service/support. I later then figured out that Blue Host and Host Monster is runned by the same people. For example, I opened up a tech support ticket with Host Monster and then they replied signing their signature with Blue Host. So I got the same service: terrible tech support and servers kept going down. Now I'm looking for a new web hosting. I a few people here gave Host Gator some good reviews. I hope Host Gator is not run be the same people that runs Blue Host and Host Monster.

This is for just a couple of simple domains and sites to be hosted.
with this being my first website goddady's website tonight or there blog site plan seem pretty good as I do not know how to build a professional looking website nor do I have a knowledge of HTML. Are there other hosts that offer better services such as these?
Also I would want to register with 1&1 as to register privately is free but with godaddy it costs around $15 and I've heard of godaddy stealing persons domains when they haven't even expired yet i.e. familyAlbum.com?
Is it allowed for instance to register my domain name with 1&1 and host my site with godaddy?
When I was with another host, they set it up so one of my subdomains had a static IP address, and I was able to use this for my SSL certificate. My new host (sharkspace) uses CPanel (other host used HELM) but it seems to me like CPanel could do this as well.
Does HELM have some feature that CPanel does not? How do I set this up? They are telling me that they cannot do this for a subdomain, and I cant afford to go buy a wildcard ssl certificate.
They also told me in the past that the only way to redirect a subdomain was using an iframe (when using the DNS Zone Editor was entirely doable) so im not exactly sure their staff has much of a clue going on,
I want to create a subdomain "exchange.domain.com"
I want this subdomain to be redirected to another site. Possible? how?
the hoster has a catch all set on my domain, domain.com
but how can I add a subdomain and have that subdomain redirect to a different site in IIS 6 (WS2003)?
to block all IPs to a subdomain, except one. I am sure there are many ways to do this but I need the most secure. The domain does not need the IPs blocked, just the sub domain.

View 0 Replies View RelatedHi, i was wondering how i would be able to use a subdomain to "dyndns". By dyndns i mean how some people use no-ip.org or dyndns.org to hide their IP address. It doesnt only hide and "mask" but it's basically like being on a normal website, where the website actually changes for each page you go to. For example pretend i was using no-ip.org.
Pretend i dont have a domain and i host a website through my VPS
Instead of 123.456.78.9, i used no-ip.or and it was now website.no-ip.org. But it not only masks, if someone goes to index.php. It would be website.no-ip.org/index.php and if someone went to chat.php, their address bar would say website.no-ip.org/chat.php.
But is it possible to do this with a subdomain?
I am trying to create subdomain for my site [url]but it is not working i tried with another name [url]and it worked however it shows subdomain has been created but dont works. I want the [url]but still it is unable to resolve it
I contacted to the host but i think i will get reply late. anyone knows how to resolve this
i got host with cpanel, i need create some subdomain accounts for user, a folder tree like this:
/home/user/www/
/home/user/www/subdomain_user1
/home/user/www/subdomain_user2
each user has ftp account, is this safe? can users use php script to access back to root or other subdomain? if yes how to protect?
I am trying to do is have a redirect so the files get redirected to a subdomain. So domain.com gets pointed to domain.newdomain.com. However, I want to keep the current URLs, so say I got [url], the below code is just redirecting that url to [url]rather than
[url]

Is it possible to change DNS to a subdomain when the domain is hosted in a VPS?
What about for a dedicated server or a shared hosting?
I have a design client who's main site (eg. site.com) is currently hosted, let's say, at some-other-host.com. He wants to add a blog to his site. I could just set up a subdomain for it and be done with it, but for SEO purposes, I prefer to put his blog on my server which is a different IP.
So is there a way to put his blog, as a subdomain, on my server even though the main site is hosted elsewhere? Is there some magic that can be done in the DNS settings (cpanel/WHM) that can point to the files on my server? Or does he have to simply buy another domain for the blog?
I have a client that we will call "Domain.com" (example for this question).
Domain.com is a huge company that has their own servers, etc. etc.
However, they want me to host one of their subdomains for them...
[url]
Is this possible to host only that one particular subdomain for domain.com or are they going to need their root domain (domain.com) with me before I am able to host this subdomain.
And, if I can host only the subdomain, how do I do this?
Its just one of those things I have never done before in my years of hosting.
