As the title states I'm wanting to forward many subdomains on a site I recently acquired.
The still has a lot of traffic to subdomains that no longer exist and I want to somehow redirect all of them to my main domain index page.
I didn't figure I could use .htaccess because the subdomains no longer exist.
Is there some way to do this via DNS or perhaps the httpd.conf file?
I've set up the affiliate manager from jrox.com for a client of mine. This includes the setup of wildcard DNS so that each affiliate can have username.clientssite.com and have it count their clicks - which works properly.
What isn't working properly is that he also has forums.hissite.com, which is loading the main website page instead of his forums. He is using cpanel to add the subdomain, and it isn't failing, so I'm not sure what's going on with it.
Here is the relative section from the httpd file.

I am trying to set the server to reject all mail to non existent users for all domains.
I found this post [URL] but that is for a previous version of Plesk and no longer seems accurate.
Is it possible to configure this setting for all domains at once?
On one my servers, I'm receiving hundreds of spam emails that are clogging up the email queue to email addresses that do not exist.
For instance domain.com, I would get
bob@domain.com
liz@domain.com
325235@domain.com
You get the picture. How do I setup my server so that if there isn't an email address setup the email automatically gets deleted instead of trying to attempt to deliver it?
I'm setting up an auto-configuration script to setup accounts in WHM and create subdomains and so far everything is working fine!
But we have a problem - when an account is setup and the subdomain is not working yet when a customer visits it he gets wrong dns information and then when the domain starts working it's not working for him.
I know that flushdns solves this issue under Windows but I don't want to make my newbie customers run complicated commands.
Will a 5 minut delay solve this issue from the moment the account is created to the moment the customer visists the site?
my control panel is PLESK, when our customers create sub domain they cannot access to their sub domains with www, for example the sub domain is sub.domain.com and I cannot access to this sub domain whit this address www.sub.domain.com .
what should I do to work the sub domains with www ?
I have a question about SSL certificates and how they function with subdomains.
OVERVIEW
Right now we have [url]. This subdomain houses our client management tool.
PROBLEM
We wanted to use an SSL cert on the above domain so I purchased a wildcard SSL. *.domain.com SSL was ordered and setup.
However, now when we enter[url]we're seeing the content from domain.com, not secure.domain.com
I understand we could use [url]but isn't the point of the wildcard SSL so I can do what I want... access [url]?
This is a cPanel/WHM setup.
I have googled high and low and i'm about to explode. This has been an issue for the last 4 days...
I have secure.domain.com
I bought a SSL cert for secure.domain.com
I installed the cert
[url] shows the right content
[url]shows the content for [url]
-
I've had this working before on site5, but I share a dedicated account now with WHM/cPanel and it's not working.
it's like the subdomain is being ignored.
-
Tll me if i'm wrong, but each SSL needs its own IP correct? i added an IP for domain.com and WHM seems to have set it for all the subdomains as well.
I purchased a dedicated server several days ago, and realize that this will be a learning curve for me since I'm not experienced in server management.
I have a quick question about subdomains.
My domain names have resolved (or are still resolving). I created two subdomains on a domain, but I can't access them. I'm not sure if there is anything else I should do to get these subdomains to work.
I'm using Plesk8.1
My domains are registered at GoDaddy (and some at RegisterFly)
if I can provide you with any information such as my DNS template, etc...
I know this question has been asked loads of times, but I don't seem to be able to find the answer I'm looking for.
I'm looking to host the forum part of my site on another server. The main part of my site is on a shared hosting account. Which is fine. I'm adding a forum to the site, and was planning on hosting this on my VPS account as a subdomain. As my shared hosting package is only small.
I've edited the DNS with my domain registration provider and added a A record for forum.mydomain.com pointing to the ip of my VPS account. I then created a account on my VPS for the domain/subdomain. However I don't seem to be able to get the subdomain to work
Do I need to ask my shared hosting provider to do anything? or do I need to edit anything on my VPS? The subdomain doesn't appear to be resolving.
I have two dedicated servers.One of them is in Germany and the other one is in Turkey.I want to set up a cluster system between them.I will use the server in Germany as a gameserver.But when someone pings the server in Germany the packages will be forwarded to the server in Turkey.So he will see the Turkish server's ping results.How can i do this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if it is possible to host subdomains on different VPS's? Here is what I am trying to do
PrimaryDomain.com -> Hosted on VPS0
|
- Subdomain1.primaryhost.com -> Hosted on VPS1
|
- Subdomain2.primaryhost.com -> Hosted on VPS2
VPS0, VPS1, VPS2 have different IP addresses.
I tried using A records to point subdomains to different VPS but VPS requires a "primary domain" looks like. Do let me know if this is possible. I tried google but not sure what exactly I shoudl be searching for.
I'm planning on buying my first domain in order to host various sites of mine in one place. I like the idea of subdomains to separate them, but I was wondering... Is it possible to access different subdomains using different passwords? I'm planning to let a friend of mine use a subdomain to host a site of hers that's related to mine, and I'd like it if she had the security of a different password. I just want to know if I can even do this, and if so, what hosts offer this option?
View 9 Replies View Relatedi have a bit of a problem here. I current have a site sitting on a windows box with wildcards subdomains set up, that are hosted on the same box.
The question i have is can i host blog.domain.com [wordpress blog] on a different box such as a linux one? and make it act as domain.com/blog?
I have 9 dedicated servers that i use for an applicaton.
what i would like to try and find out is the following.....
all the servers have WHM/Cpanel installed
i want to have a domain (www.domain.com) on 1 server
then i want to somehow have
server1.domain.com (second server)
server2.domain.com (Third server)
etc
Is this possible, if so how would i go about setting this up?
to have abc.mydomain.com redirect to mydomain.com/abc
to do this, I have:
1) created a DNS record at my hosting company, *.mydomain.com and it works, any made-up subdomain correctly points to my server.
2) using Plesk, I created a DNS record, *.mydomain.com
3) in an .htaccess file, I put:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.mydomain.com
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ([^.]+).mydomain.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mydomain.com/%1 [L,R]
... but the thing doesn't work, I keep getting the server's default page:
This is the Control Panel default page
If you see this page it means:
1) hosting for this domain is not configured
or
2) there's no such domain registered in Control Panel.
I have recently run into the need to setup subdomains on one of my site's with their own SSL certificate. Cpanel only allows one SSL per domain.
Does anyone have experience or a recommendation on how to setup a subdomain with it's own SSL.
My thought is to setup a separate hosting account for the subdomain. i did this in plesk a few times successfully, and in theory it should also work in cpanel. With the separate account, i can install a separate cert and the problem is fixed, but I'm not sure if it will work.
Is there a way to lookup all sudomains for a domain?

I'm a bit new to this, and I wanted to host my server on a VPS. I tried connecting, but that just didn't work. Do I need to portforward the VPS? Sorry, Like I said, I'm a bit new.

I'm looking to set up a server side "mailing list", with a few specifics. The idea is that someone could send a mail message to production@domain.com and it would then forward that message to all members included in that department (no more than 12 each). The old administrator here had us hosted on 1and1, who allowed 3 forwarders per email address, and he had managed to rig a system out of that, but I've just moved to Downtownhost (yay!) and they appear to only allow 1 forwarder. Is there a simple way to do this without having to make all users maintain their own mail distribution lists?
I have a domain at Enom and I have a use for it which would require it being assigned an IP address rather than nameservers in order to reach the server it would be hosted on - I have 2 questions please:-
Would doing it this way bring any penalties in search engine ranking, PR or any other problems?
How would it best be done at Enom?
I have two servers. server A and server B, server A is fast to my my clients, but server B is slow. Server A and B are not in the same network.
Clients need to download/upload files to server B with FTP.
How can I do something like this:
Clients use FTP client connect to server A, server A acts as a proxy server connect to server B, the files uploaded/downloaded to server B are all proxy by server A.
Client will not need to do anything except use server A's IP for FTP.
I have looked into SSH FTP forwarding, but it's not the same thing.
Servers are Linux CentOS.
Can anyone give me advise what software/program I should use to achieve this?
