How To Set DNS Server To Point Subdomain To Cpanel
May 17, 2007
I am using a cpanel for my site.
While I am not using the nameserver of the cpanel hosting for my site.
I am using a 3rd party DNS server to handle the DNS thing.
I directly point www/ftp/mail/... A records to my site hosting's IP address.
And everything works well.
But there is a problem, I don't know how to set up subdomain.
I created a subdomain with my site cpanel.
And it automatically created a root directory for the subdomain under /public_html. ( .../public_html/subdomain/)
But I don't know how to make the subdomain work.
How to set the DNS records to directly point my subdomain to its root directory on the hosting?
I tried to add a A record for my subdomain. But it only direct the subdomain to /public_html the main domain's root directory.
Untill now, the subdomain is still pointed to the same page as the main domain.

we have 2 VPS
vps 1 : install Direct Admin
VPS 2: install Kloxo ( LxAdmin)
IN VPS 1 we have Sub domain ( sub.site.com)
in VPS 2 : im set DNS in Kloxo => sub.site.com when i click in kloxo, Ipaddress /configur Domain
when i select sub domain ( sub.site.com )
show this error :
Alert: To map an IP to a domain, the domain must ping to the same IP, otherwise, the domain will stop working. The domain you are trying to map this IP to, doesn't resolve back to the IP, and so it cannot be set as the default domain for the IP.

If I create subdomain to point to a different folder on a different server, can I still keep the original URL?
I'm a new member so cannot post links as example but if subdomain from link A points to link B, can it still keep the URL of the subdomain from link A?

I have my myname.com and I'd like to forward home.myname.com to my home server IP.
I'm running Linux and Apache on both the server I lease (that has myname.com set up on) and on my home server (hopefully home.myname.com).
So far I've tried URL rewriting in .htaccess, which works, but it fowards to my IP in the browser's address bar- Id like to keep the address bar as home.myname.com.
I assume I have to modify the DNS zone for myname.com right?
I'm using bind on the leased server

I have a dedicated
Under namecheap I point this domain using nameserver ns1.*** and ns2.***
Now I must make this:
ms1.domain.com must point to server A
ms2.domain.com must point to server B
How I can set this at best?
Setting must be maked on namecheap (manage dns under namecheap)
OR
setting must be maked on WHM?*
* x example:
www.domain.com point to server A
into server A we must define ms1.domain.com to use local
AND
must define ms2.domain.com to point external to secon server (B)

I have my domain name pointed to a VPS 1. I want its subdomain (for example sub.domain.com) to be pointed to another VPS 2.
So that if someone visits www.domain.com the php files are delivered from VPS1 and if some visits sub.domain.com then php files are delivered from VPS2.
I need to keep my VPS1 rock solid and extremely secure by keeping lowest possible php files and on low load too and want another VPS for online demo and testing (high load and cluttered with php files). I cannot use another domain (for second vps) as the sub.domain.com pages are already indexed on google and changing domain means will have to again reindex them and rank them in google.

I have some URLs like:
[url]
[url]
Now,I would like to create an alias/sub-domain for this URL. For example:
[url]-> [url]
[url]-> [url]
how this can be done? Do I have to create a subdomain for this? But when I try to create a subdomain throught the OLM control panel, it asks me for the real path i.e. '/var/www/html/subdomain_folder' which I don't have in this case. Secondly, can this be done without modifying any information in the DNS? Changing DNS costs be $5/change from OLM

I would like to create a domain which will point to another website/IP.
Something like this:
DomainA.com has subdomain1.DomainA.Com
and subdomain1.DomainA.com point to DomainB.com
So that a file DomainB.com/abc.html
Can be access via subdomain1.DomainA.Com/abc.html

I have a dedicated server with Hostgator and I want to point img1.smackjeeves.com to img1.smackjeeves.com on my Dreamhost server. Dreamhost tells me what nameservers to use for smackjeeves.com, but my Hostgator server is already serving as a nameserver. Can I have my main DNS record point to Dreamhost's DNS only for img1? Or do I need to have my img1 mimic Dreamhost's DNS for img1?

I wanted to point my MX record from my registrar's dns to a hosted account that is controlled by cPanel, but inside cPanel I don't see a unique MX record, it just lists my domain name. Is this possible with cPanel? I have done this before with H-Sphere.
I am just parking my domain and using my registrar's nameservers and wanted to just add in the MX record for email.

I've been with serverpoint.com for over a year now and my experience has been overwhelmingly positive. Last year I negotiated an excellent price for a dedicated box with serverpoint via PM. They delivered my server promptly and even upgraded my CPU since they were out of stock on the one I had ordered. The few times I’ve had to call support (due to issues on my end) they’ve been prompt and professional.
My only real complaint is I can’t setup automatic bill pay online. They want my to send a photocopy of my CC and a photo ID, which I’m leery of.
I suppose this is a boring review, but in and ideal world isn’t that the way it should be? Who wants a lot of drama with a host provider?

We are trying to implement a reseller model shopping website for our resellers. The customized shopping website for the reseller will be hosted on our website, say: abc.xyz.com
We want our resellers to load abc.xyz.com from their own sub domain itself, like: shopping.abc.com
I know that this can be done using a URL redirection, but is there any way that shopping.abc.com will load the contents from abc.xyz.com and still keep the URL unchanged in the address bar ? I'm not referring to URL masking using iframes and note that xyz.com and abc.com are on different servers. Does anyone know whether this is technically feasible?

Im using Cpanel and I would like to have all subdomains of a domain I host point to the main root directory of the site. How would I do that in cpanel? When I click on subdomains do I just put the wildcard * for the subdomain name?
Also what do I do if I want to point all subdomains to the main directory except for the certain domains I specify? So if I wanted blogs.domain.com to point do a different location but still have all other subdomains point to the main directory.

I bought a new domain name today from godaddy. I'm having problems with my host. There saying that there is something wrong with my .htaccess file and I dont know what to do. My host looked over my server and said there is nothing wrong with it at all. Well, obviously there is because im getting a [url] Internal 500 server error.

whats up fellers, i'm attempting to point my design site name from whm, to my home i.p address by changing the i.p in whm dns zone editor. I'm doing this because its just so much easier to copy an ad, or web site or whatever i do to the server via my home network so the client can see the project pretty much in realtime (some ads are like 800mb) . ALSO i'm trying to set up exchange so my motorola q will have realtime email.
Anyway, so "mysite.com -A record -i.p.addy" Now the site comes up.. and i get emails.. but i cant 'send' any emails and windows server is telling me i have a non existing domain name.
so the question is am going way over my head and should i just use a service like no-ip or dyndns or can this be done?

I have a client that has multiple domains, is there a way of pointing multiple domains to one server? Right now, their site is on their old server, and I was wondering how they configured it? So if you type in www.mysite.com or www.mysite2.com, each show the respective domain. (i.e. www.mysite.com/aboutus.htm is the same as www.mysite2.com/aboutus.htm) I have a (DV) with (mt). I created a cname to point to www.mysite.com (where the actual NS are pointing to) is this correct?

I have always been using a no-ips service for a domain name. It was really easy with the dynamic update client because I have a dynamic ip.
I have just registered a domain and would like to point that to my server also. My registrar says it is currently parked, there doesn't seem to be an option to unpark it anywhere. I have also changed the nameserver to my no-ip domain name.
Nothing is happening.
I have also googled dns.. If I want to point my domain directly to my server do I need to go and install Active Directory and then dns or can I just install DNS, do I even need to do this??
Seems like a lot of hassle tbh, this is really frustrating me because i'm pretty tech savvy but am completely lost here..

PRODUCT, VERSION, VERSION OF MICROUPDATE, OPERATING SYSTEM, ARCHITECTURE
Plesk 11.0.9, Windows Server 2012
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: I have an application that uses customer prefixes ex. user1.domain.com, user2.domain.com. The application exists in one plesk subscription (with exclusive IP), the sales site (www) exists on another subscription on the same server (different IP - shared). On a previous version of plesk (9.5 I believe) I was able to easily point the www prefix to another subscription/domain on the same server. In Plesk 11 it won't let me do that ... when I try to create a "www" alias for the intended subscription I get the error message "Error: Wrong prefix for domain alias".
EXPECTED RESULT: Some option to allow me to point the www prefix to another subscription on same server.
For the application's subscription, the DNS is hosted within plesk, for the intended www subscription the DNS is hosted at godaddy. I don't think any of that makes a difference but mentioned anyways.

We have a server with a fine company, BocaCom. They are who the IP addresses are we use ultimately registered to. It seems we are being blacklisted by secureserver (isn't that Godaddy?) because the IP does not register to us for our outgoing email. It registers to BocaCom.
Is anyone else having this problem, and how to we get around it? We've contacted BocaCom and are waiting for their reply. Is this an IP issue or am I reading the secureserver reply wrong?
----------------
Dear Sir/Madam,
While there is indeed an rDNS record created for 72.35.xx.xx, it does not point back to the original A record. This will need to be updated before we can look further into unblocking the IP.

I'm trying to find a script of some kind that determines which domains (from a list on the box) no longer point to the server. I have to believe this exists somewhere, but with searching I'm coming up empty.
Plesk and cPanel are my targets. I could build it myself with some time, but honestly, I'm one of those guys that doesn't like to reinvent the wheel when it's already out there...even if as a paid script.
