View 6 RepliesI need to make a dns hosting for a client of mine. He will change his domain name nameservers to point to my server.
His website is hosted on another hosting company. On my server I will create all the necessary CNAME and A records to point www on the server of the other company.
My problem is with the MX records though. Because my client owns a local mailserver, (I think it's MS Exchange server) I need to create a primary MX record to deliver all the mails to that mailserver. No problem till here.. But he also needs a secondary MX record in case his mailserver is inaccessible ,so all the mails have to be queued on my VPS and when his mailserver is accessible again to deliver all the mails.
Any idea of how I can configure my dns zones for that?
i am looking for dns hosting with redirect to a server in Europe or usa based on location.

To keep it simple, we'd like to just change the namesevers to ns1.domainparking.com and ns2.domainparking.com (not real nameservers!) and the domains would then automatically show a simple web page.
We use cpanel servers and are wondering how easy this is to do? I've seem mention of wildcard dns? Is that the answer?
i have about 8 different domains i'd like to point to a nameserver (ns1./ns2.mydomain.com) on Win2k3 server, but i can't get them resolved through my nameserver without creating a manual forward lookup entry for each *parked* domain separatly..
Does anyone know how to resolve "parked" domains automatically on Win2k3 DNS??
I just can't find any answer for this, everything i've found required manual creation of lookup entries..
anyone?
I have a vps with dedicated ip's for my domain names.
I read that in order for mails coming from my server not be picked up as spam, i need to add reverse ip entries.
Now i have already added the glue nameserver records on my godaddy control panel,
ns1.mydomain.com -> 10.20.30.40
ns2.mydomain.com -> 10.20.30.41
But do i need to speak to the datacenter to add the reverse dns entries for my domain on their nameservers? What about if i host my nameservers offsite, but then have my webserver/mailserver etc inside the datacenter? Would i need to request the datacenter where the nameservers are hosted to add the reverse ip entries for the domain, and then the request the same from the datacenter for my web/mail servers to add the reverse entries?
Is it really required?
I've been having some DNS problems with one of my domains for quite some time now. The domain does not always resolve - some go days without being able to access the site.
I ran a simple BASH script to show what I mean. I replaced my domain with "mysite.net" and the IP with "xx.xx.xxx.xxx".
# for i in `seq 1 15`; do host mysite.net; done
mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx
mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net.

Has anyone experienced a similar problem? I have gone over the DNS records countless times and see no problems. The site is hosted on my own dedicated server.
I am looking for web hosting services that give different IP for each of my domain.
Which mean, when I have several domains there, all of them have different IP instead of same IP.
I have a certain domain which has linux hosting, but I want to provide a windows hosting for mail purpose for the same. Can I do it by just linking the DNS of the hosting to my domain?
View 9 Replies View RelatedSuppose I purchased a domain name say 'www.myhost.com' from 'enom.com' and i've hosting account with 'godaddy.com'.Now to make 'www.myhost.com' live I have to creat domain name 'myhost.com' on my hosting account and upload the sites content via FTP manager.
My question is - Can I creat domain name 'my-host.com' or ''myhost1.com' in my hosting account and point contents to 'www.myhost.com'? Or in other words-
Do domain name and hosting account created domain need to be same?(www.myhost.com & myhost.com , in this case)
I just got hosting with a company called Netfirms (netfirms.com), and I gave it my domain name(destinyislands.com) that I purchased from godaddy. However, destinyislands.com will not redirect to the actual pages that I have uploaded to netfirms. The only page that will work is destinyislands.netfirms.com(a crappy subdomain). I just signed up about 30 minutes ago, so maybe I need to wait for the domain to register into the system, but I feel like I got ripped off. Anybody have any idea of if I just need to wait, and then the regular domain will work?

What im trying to do is, I have a a web design company that offers hosting for the content we design. Now i have a customer who has a domain name registered through godaddy on their own account. How do i get the website content to appear when a visitor types in the domain name.
My hosting account has a dedicated ip if that makes a difference.
I understand that there may be more ways than one to accomplish this task.
about anonymous hosting/domain registration. I've been a web developer for a while and just started building a site for a friend of mine overseas. He wants everything to be completely anonymous due to the nature of the site (steroids).
Now I'm pretty sure I got it figured out but it seems too easy. Offshore domain registration with a prepaid card/ offshore web hosting the same way. My guy says he wants everything as anonymous as possible and is already hooked up to the Tor network with Privoxy.
I'm currently with 1and1 - obviously they suck - no need to belabor that here. I've been resisting a hosting switch, but the outages are more and more frequent, and my website is my livlihood. Need recommendations for web/MySql hosting and also hosting for a single Exchange account. Does not have to be the same company. Price is not a huge issue - I'm willing to pay for quality. Requirements are basic; about 3-5 GB of file storage, SQL 4 and 5, linux server. Shared server is fine. Any recommendations? Don't really trust the "review" sites.
Some kind of moving assistance/support would be GREAT. I've managed to muddle through and set all this stuff up over the years, but am not at all confident of my ability to move it all without screwing up. Includes 3 active databases, several sites, SSL cert (currently purchased through 1&1 but it looks like they farmed it out to geotrust), and exchange mailbox.
I am stuck between GoDaddy and HostGator for reseller account. What I want is to offer my client to host their site I design on my hosting service but I also want to offer reseller program on other site.
Here are the problems:
GoDaddy have good automatic system, but it won't let me have the freedom to have access into my client's cpanel to upload or update their website unless they have to give me their username and password. GoDaddy requires me to purchase reseller and SUPER reseller package if I want to run two websites.
GatorHost offers me to manage WHM and Cpanel for my clients which is good. They also have ENOM for me to be domain dealer. The negative thing about Gatorhost is that I have to use one of their free template, if I need one, but their templates sucks! And I do not know how to tailor my own website with their WHM automated billing system.
What do you suggest and where can I find a good hosting template to edit. I just wish that GatorHost have automatic system with better template!
I have a domain bought with godaddy.com
I have the site hosted on hostultra.com
Whenever I put the address in (.com) it stays as the label in the address bar on every page.
Is having the hosting and and domain with the same company the only way to make the pages say mysite.com/index.html etc ?
Without using masking of course.
Just purchased a domain name and looking for hosting. Spent the last 2 nights reading reviews/complaints, but do not know which are genuine. Too many companies too pick from. Do not know which ones are good or to aviod.
I had a website with webhostingpad, but they couldn't get my webmail to work, so I cancelled. Apart from that, the service wasn't bad. Now hunting for a new web host.
Newbie, so don't need such big resources. Website is to promote a home school. A few pics and webmail that works is all I need. Site builder would be good too. Budget: about $5 a month. Location: Japan.
I've read articles that said it's generally bad to use the domain registrar as the hosting company(forgot the reason though)Right now I have some domains in Goddady and 1and1, and have a Hostgator account. I am thinking about just using Goddady's hosting service so I only need to manage my Goddady and 1and1 accounts instead of managing 3 accounts.
I am going to use Wordpress.org to build the sites
I want to change the hosting to xyz.com from abc.com. .. what is required. I have changed the dns but now i get server not found on abc.com. what else is defined?

They say I can have unlimited domain hosting. But it turned out I can have subdomains that's what they meant. I think its false advertising.
Right now I have a cheap host for $1/month reseller, promise of unlimited domains/bandwidth etc.,
How is it possible to host unlimited domains? Or is this a concept used by everyone to mean unlimited "subdomains"?
how this work? Because I am trying to save cost on hosting and have a reliable service provider. Is it possible in CPanel?
For my future Chinese Bonsai website I am considering several options for hosting and domain names. Until now I have a US and an Amsterdam hosting (English version in the US and the Dutch, French and German in Amsterdam).
As the Chinese version will be non-political I think I prefer to host it in mainland China. Does anyone here knows a good webhosting that is not too cheap? I need 100Mb and some GB's (I guess under 5GB should be ok) of bandwidth.
Furthermore, I am not sure what domain name to choose. I have 4 options:
1. the name in pinyin (normal text) .com
2. the name in pinyin .cn
3. the name in Chinese characters .com
3. the name in Chinese characters .cn
If I choose to take a .com, would it matter to have this domain name registered in the US? This is cheaper than in China I think; however, it is important to me that the website is seen by Baidu as 100% Chinese (does it matter where a domain name is registered?)
There is too many web hostings from the google search and i don't know which one is good.
My situation is i have a web page that is my portfolio. It is made by flash and php. Moreover, there is a blog too.(WordPress - php) Everything is ready but i am considering the web-hosting.
What i need is support php and mysql. If possible, i would like it support ASP.net too. (i think it is not too possible for both of them) And i don't really need huge web space...i think 1G is enough and the traffic will not too much too as it is private website.
My budge is limited and not too much for a month. I plan to spend less than US$10 per month to get a web-hosting. Also with a domain name too.
How do I stop my add-on domain from appearing in the search engine as a sub-domain? For example, it shows up as example.com/test.com. I only want test.com.

I recently purchased web hosting with HostMonster. I will want to build multiple sites down the road.
What is the process of getting another domain and hosting it with HostMonster? Can I just buy another domain from a site and stick it right on my leased web server?
Do I need to transfer the doamin into HostMonster?
I have bought a domain name and hosting space from different sources. I,myself want to link the both.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm in a unique position (friend of a business owner) to provide a hosting company between 50 to 1000 new clients who need a domain name, yearly hosting and a 1 or 2 page website that clients can edit and customize to a limited amount (color, main body text and headers and some graphics within body). A basic template with graphics and text would be provided, just need the backend for the clients to customize certain things.
I'm new to the hosting scene, so I'm not sure of any exsisting hosts that offer this.
I'm sure some of the big hosting companies offer something similar like godaddy.
However we are looking for a hosting company that we can recieve residual referral monies from these clients we sign up. I guese if someone offers a reseller account with all these features, then we charge our clients whatever we want. I am just looking at options right now to research and provide suggestions to my partner.
