Domain W/o Host - Parking
Sorry if this is off-topic but im registering a domain with godaddy
is it possible to register even if i dont have hosting yet?
It says:
"One or more of the nameservers you entered are either blank or incorrect. Please reenter your nameservers below. OR Park my names at GoDaddy"
What does it mean to park my names at godaddy?

Domain Parking - Wildcard Domain Name Server (DNS)?
We have a lot of unused domains that we'd like to setup domain parking for. 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?

Domain Parking
I have got a VPS with basic LAMP installed. I want to park my domains, and create subdomains etc. I don't have any control panel, because I don't know how to install it. My VPS provider provides me a free (public? they use it for all of the VPS they host) name servers, but I don't know how to use them Does anyone have any links to tutorials, or anyone could explain me how to do it? There is some BIND9, but I don't know how to configure it. Lets say my site is stored in /var/www/page1 so is it posible to park domain to display content in that folder? Also I heard about some A records and CNAME, is it better solution? I know that you have to create A record pointing to IP address, but what to do next? I dont have a lot of money to pay my provider (they charge quite a lot for servers configuration, because its unmanaged services) Maybe any trusted person can configure my VPS? (ftp to create users, dns, or explanation how to use A records, secure php; GD). But I cant pay much, only $10 - $15 paypal

Parking A Domain Under A Subdomain
I have 2 domains ie. red.com blue.com. They are both on seperate servers. I want red.com to be a subdomain for blue.com. I went ahead and created an A host for red.blue.com, I then created a virtualhost and everything is working, I can pull up red.blue.com and it pulls up the same data if I were to go to red.com. Here is my issue. I want to have red.com pull up red.blue.com by default so blue.com gets credit for traffic, I am moving red.com and moving it all into blue.com. Hopefully this makes sense. Also, I want to make sure nothing breaks my current search engine results.

Bulk Domain Name Parking In Whm
I have to park 200+ domains for a client. I have full root access and normally I would go to: WHM >> Main >> DNS Functions >> Park a Domain However, manually adding every domain 1 by 1 will take a long time. Is there a way in WHM or in Root to bulk park all the 200+ domains? Or is there a script?

My Domain Went Back To Showing The Parking Page
I started up a brand new site just over a week ago and set the DNS settings to point the domain to my site. It's been that way ever since. Now I try to login today to update my site and see that every url with my domain goes back to the GoDaddy parking page. Is this more a problem with my host, or GoDaddy?

Parking An External 3rd Level Domain In CPanel
How to add an external third level domain to cPanel? For example, my main domain at cPanel is one.com, so I can easily add subdomains like second.one.com, third.one.com etc. But what I need is to point first.two.com to my hosting. I'm a customer, not the server administrator. A two.com owner has already configured my server's IP in the two.com zone file for that subdomain. But how to configure that external 3rd level domain in my cPanel?

Getting A Domain From Host
How reasonable are domains which are i8nside hosting packages? Read a lot about this, people mostly saying they should be avoided, but give no real examples, so I do not know whether to get a domain from a host, marblehost.com in particular. Maybe someone here has corresponding experience, maybe some second-hand at least?

Should Domain Registrar And Host Be The Same
The more I read and research the more confused I get. Issue: Business #1 hosted on local ISP, no pressing need to move it. Business #2 started out selling (not ecommerce) a couple items related to business #1 so I created pages for them on B1 site. B1 is no longer active, B2 now has a lot of items for sale and needs to get it’s own site, eventually ecommerce, but not right away (not a lot of time right now). I own the name for B2 parked at Network Solutions & it’s up for renewal (in a few days). I can move the domain register & get a website on one of the bigger hosting sites for about the same cost as I’m now paying for a private registration at NS. Is it stupid to pay for private since the contact info is plastered all over the website anyway? Most of these hosts offer a free domain registration. Then I read that it’s better to have your domain registered somewhere other than the site host in case there is a dispute. I’m thinking—move registration to GoDaddy now. Keep researching hosts. If I (ever) decide on one that offers free registration I can get another name to park on the main domain that is reg’ed with GoD? Or would the free domain automatically be considered the main domain at host where I’d have 1 c panel & add-ons? I need to make sure I can add ecommerce to the site in the future. I created the original site in Front Page 97 which is of course no longer supported, I no longer even have a fully working version that I can find since I upgraded to XP, but I have a front page editor & Cute FTP to update the B1 site. So I’m in the market for another simple site builder, I don’t write code. I also have a dial-up connection only, so I don’t think an on-line builder is a good option. Oh, and I’m on a tight budget but not looking for a free hosting “service”. $10/ month maybe? I didn’t even know anything about CPanels and add ons and sub domains until a couple days ago. Info overload,

Different Host And Domain Site
I want to buy a domain from Godaddy.com and host on a free webhost, that works really great. But I don't wanna get this problem when you visit the forum ->>> mydomain.com, I want it like this ->>> mydomain.com/forum/ and forum/index.php and all that stuff, so you can visit a thread directly. But in my experiences before, I just got the mydomain.com, even if I visited the forum or an another page. Should I put the DNS or what to get the godaddy domain to work fine with the free webhost?

H-sphere Host / Email Not Going To Own Domain
One of my domain is hosted with a company who has h-sphere. Last one year everything was smooth and I was very satisfied with them. 3 days ago I found some of the emails stopped sending to the recipients. When the visitors create an invoice they will get the invoice by email and I will get a copy too, but now I noticed that these emails are not going to all the mails for example, when a customer create an invoice it should go to customer@yahoo.com and me@mydomain.com. What I found is it is not coming to me@mydomain.com and if the customer has a gmail address then it is not going too. but if customers email address is customer@xyz.com then he is receiving it.

What Is Your Best Reseller Host And Domain Registrar
I'm interested in maybe moving all my reseller hosting and domain registration from United Hosting and Low Cost Names respectively... So I'm interested in hearing what you are using and why... I'm a freelancer who resells space, I live in the UK and am wanting the best companies to work it for me and my clients... A few reasons why I want to change right now is that United Hosting just doesn't offer enough space for me, and I'm finding it more and more expensive for the value I'm getting. Though they are good as they allow me to edit php.ini files, have ImageMagick, and offer webmail to my clients etc. I do like Low Cost Names, but again I'm finding the lack of CNAME records a little disappointing. So... what are your best reseller host and domain registrator to you and why?

Clarification Regarding Web Host, Domain Name
I had just sat down to click on the "buy now" button of a web host service provider when I just had a few more doubts. I am faced with a few queries like the domain name I need to buy. At the moment, I have not made a proper site for anyone. I am experimenting with a few example sites only. One of my good friends, who is a cricket coach told me that he needs to modify his site. He told me that I can use his site to experiment and learn. So I am now trying to make a site using his images, header etc but with a few modifications. His site contains a home page, a contact page, an image gallery and also a registration page where he wants the students to give their details like name, age, school and submit the details. Now, I have just managed to have a home page, a contact page and a plain gallery page with a few images. I also made a registration page where the student can submit the details. But I have not been able to test the form on my page to see if it works. Now this is what I want. I do not have a site of my own now. But I need to have a web host who will give me php support so that I can test whatever page I make. When I am satisfied that I can venture out and make a website for somebody, I intend to start offering my services to my friends (for a nominal fee or even for free if it is going to help me to learn. I do not want to take money for a sloppy site or take my friends for a ride. I want to be able to offer quality service for whatever I charge). My question now is this. When I need to register for a domain name, is it a good idea to just have a domain name like www.jppp.com ( if it is available or a similar name). Then can I try out the various pages that I make on this site? Once I get my domain name, I need to download a ftp client in order to upload my files, isn't it? Once I am a little confident and offer my services to a client, I make a site on my PC with all the files required. Then do I upload the files to my own domain name to show it to the client for his approval? Or should I have a domain name of my client's choice and then upload it there before making any changes that he wants? One more question. In my gallery page, I have a few thumbnail images which shows a larger version on hover. Now I can upload the pages which my friend has provided me. But my friend will have many images which he needs to be able to upload himself instead of having to depend on me? I know that I need to use PHP for this. But I do not know the exact method. Can I be shown the way or directed to a tutorial? Will I have to let my client know that the size of the images should not exceed a certain limit? Being a layman, he will not know how to resize images which I can easly do in photoshop, isn't it? What if his images are too many and exceed the amount of webspace that I have?

Domain Name Server/Nameserver/host Name Issue
Well, the ns1.NAME.com and ns2.NAME.com is done. It works and links to the right place. My host name is "dog.NAME.com" and links to the main server IP (example 1.1.1.1). So when i try to do this: 1.1.1.1/~NAME, it redirects me to dog.NAME.com which is good but then dog.NAME.com can't be found. Server not found is the exact error i get. The IP works. i don't know what i am doing wrong. My host said they will charge me to fix it, so i am relaying on you guys to save me money.

1and1 Won't Host A Domain Name Without Extra Charge?
I was looking for a domain name and registered it with 1and1 last year, for UK 11 pounds approximately. I then found that they were also charging me approx 30 UK pounds every six months for web hosting space that I did not ask for as I have a great host elsewhere. I have gone to their site and tried to cancel the web hosting while retaining the domain name but it only allows me to cancel the domain name, which I don't want to do. I have tried contacting them multiple times over this additional charge and get stonewalled every time with a standard response that the money is due on my contract. In the circumstances I would like to transfer the domain name to another host as renewal is a couple of months away, but I'm scared that they'll find some way to stop me doing that? ....

Host Will Only Update Domain Name Server (DNS) In Batches, Takes Several Hours For A DNS Change, Normal?
Host will only update DNS in batches, takes several hours for a DNS change, is that normal? Well today my mail stopped working and it turns out the A record for mail was deleted. How it got deleted I don't know. I called my host and after speaking to 2 techs, they said that have added my request to a batch, and that would update in a few hours. I said to him, batch? What can't you do it instantly? He said thats not the way their DNS works and any DNS change would affect thousands of other sites they are hosting. Does anyone know what kind of dns system these people could possibly have where they can not reload a single zone? And by affected, I think he means the sites will go down for a minute or so, while it relaods every zone. Is this really the case, or are these people just idiots?

Change Host, Change Domain And Getting Search Engines Up To Speed
Has anyone helped clients transition from one domain to another? Maybe dissolving a partnership or renaming their company... so a new domain name has been registered and a new website created. 2 Issues: #1 Using .htaccess 301 redirect We used the following command line in their old website's htaccess file Redirect 301 / [url] The goal was to get people try to visit any page of their old website (i.e. OldWebsite.com/contact.html) redirected to their new website (i.e. NewWebsite.com/contact.html). Isn't that supposed to change the address bar's URL, too? For some reason, I visit their old site and I seem to be redirected to their new website but the address bar still has their old domain name? Something is going on??? #2 Having their new company name for 2 years now. People can enter her new company name in Google, MSN or Yahoo. Her new company name appears in the search results but has the old domain name associated with it. We are trying to get rid of any reference to that old domain name? What's the easiest way to do this? So what people see in search engines is: New Company Short Meta Description www.OldDomain.com What steps did I miss in this transition? What steps do I have to take on their old website/old web server to control it's appearance on search engines and make sure people get to the new website?

Will The Nameservers Work If The Nameservers Are Pointed To A Parking Page
Will the nameservers work if the nameservers are pointed to a parking page? For example: I need to change my nameservers to ns1.mywebhost.com and ns2.mywebhost.com (nameservers are made up) These nameservers are from my web hosting service provider. When I visit the nameservers, it shows up a parking page from a domain parking service (let's say NameDrive parking page) Will the nameservers function correctly and will my websites work? I have this question because usually the nameservers that I use, they always point to a CP page or something like that rather than a parking page.

Reverse Domain Name Server (DNS) ARPA For Domain On VPS
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?

32 Or 64bit & Existing Domain Net Vs New Domain
delving into a new server, a dual opteron w/Centos. Got two questions as I think about setup. 1) 32 bit or 64bit? 2) Regarding host names and server assignemt...I can either assign it as a node to a domain hosted elsewhere in a reseller account, or I can start with a completely unused domain which is currently parked. Any preference, in an ideal world? (I have absolutely no preference, but it occurrred to me it may or may not be of consequence, perfomance & IT-wise and generally speaking .. all things being equal, of course.) Like I said, a newbie. So I'm braced for the if-you-have-to-ask, you-shouldn't-be-in-one" musings for these rather basic boneheaders.

I need to install (well, the hosting company will do it for me) a SSL certificate and I need to know what is best or common practice, to use domainname.com or www.domainname.com I don't know what difference it would make but it seems to do so because the hosting company is asking me to choose. Being that I'm clueless about this, I would also appreciate a quick explanation on the benefits or downfalls of using either one.
