How To Set Subdomain To Other Server, Domain In Godaddy, Server In Outside
Mar 6, 2008
i had searching in this forum and in google How to set Subdomain to other server, i had try some of methode but still not working, because i cant set A Name in godaddy, because i use other webhosting outside godaddy
i just have ip address from my other server, i want subdomain to go this ip address, for example 10.42.1.21
what is your experience in godaddy, how to set Subdomain to other server, please give simple step by step dude
I am running a CentOS 6.5, 64-bit server with Plesk 12.0.18, and need to install a wildcard SSL for one of the domains/sub domains hosted on this server.
So you have the csr and private key installed (and domain.crt?), you just need to open..
I can't believe the hours of BS I had to go through with Godaddy hosting to get a subdomain to work. Their online "help" is horrible, incorrect, and incomplete.
For people who may have this problem, here's what I had to go through:
You can go into "Domain Management" and "Add a Subdomain" and have it point to a specific directory. Fine. That's all well and good, but that in itself does nothing and their help implies that's all you have to do and you're set, boom you have a subdomain. Not so fast.
You have to go into your "DNS Manager" and add a CNAME record with the same name as your subdomain and have it point to @. So apparently you have to change the DNS first so web browsers recognize the subdomain and get redirected to your host, then the domain management "subdomain rule" kicks in and it knows to go to a certain directory.
The funny part is the customer cervice person knew none of this. He kept insisting I had to add an A record, obviously just reading from a script. And even if I did have to mess with my DNS settings to enable my subdomain why wasn't this in the "help" on your website? Unbelieveable.
I have a client who has a ssl cert with godaddy but wants to change his hosting to me because he doesnt like godaddy at all. Can we switch his ssl from godaddy to my server?
i just bought a dedicated server from godaddy. I need some help to set up a forum.I did everything as said in the guide but doesn't work.i asked for some help from the godaddy support team but they said that this is outside our realm of support.
im using simple control panel..I added a domain,setuped the dns settings but it still says page cannot be displayed and i couldn't connect through ftp either to upload my site.It has been 4 days now i have bought.
I have been trying to run my emails accounts from my dedicated server, or just put the emails back to the go daddy secure server net. But I can get this right. Can someone help me? I am using the simple control panel. I went to use a dedicated server because this will give some freedom, but I just realize I may not be ready for this servers yet.
I used to run a blog on blogger.com and it was going well, but I decided that it wasn't enough having it run by someone else, so I decided to purchase my own hosting to install wordpress and continue the blogging there.
I already had purchased the domain name from them, so it made sense to me to purchase some basic hosting from them too, as I'd never really heard anything bad about them.
But, now I am having problems. I tried to install wordpress, followed everything exactly, but this lead me to nothing, so I went back to basics, and just put a basic html file on the server, to see if I could look at it from a browser.
The domain is: theapblog.com (file= theapblog.com/home.html).
Whenever I use the domain name, I get a 404 error, it cannot find the server. If I use the IP address of the server directly, I get a 403 error, so I don't think I can actually access any of the files from a browser.
Basically, I'm pretty new to this, and would really like some help. As far as I can guess, it appears as though the domain isn't linked to the server, as surely then it too would return a 403, and as for the 403, I really don't understand.
I have a .fr domain purchased from Gandi.net. I have webhosting with GoDaddy.com.
After setting the DNS to point to GoDaddy.com (ns51 and ns52...) I get an error message and the DNS revert back to the default settings (gandi's DNS). AFNIC's(.fr regulator) zonecheck fails with the following error:
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 just got a VPS plan for the first time where I want to host several new websites. In the past I've used individual accounts to host a couple of other websites and haven't paid much attention to nameserver setup, just configured at my registrar whatever I was given from the hosting service.
So, I got a brand new domain to act as the host of the rest of the domains I'm setting up: www.example.com.
In the VPS I have setup this one as the default domain for nameservers: ns1.example.com ns2.example.com
Question 1: - Can I setup ns1.example.com and ns2.example.com as the nameserververs for www.example.com ? i.e. nameserver is used for the same domain in which it is named. Even if this is possible, is it a good idea or would it be better to host it somewhere else? When I try to define those as the nameservers in Godaddy I get the error message Nameserver not registered. What am I missing?
Other DNS questions Question 2: - If I host my nameservers in my VPS, I will need a separate IP for each one (ns1, ns2...and so on). Can I still use those IP's to actually host websites, or do I need additional IP's to host the actual sites? Any value in keeping each IP dedicated to a nameserver?
For example: IP#1 = used for ns1 IP#2 = used for ns2 IP#1 = used for website 1 IP#2 = used for website 2
Question 3: - Are DNS backup services valuable if I host my own nameservers? Any suggestions on good quality providers? Price not an issue.
Question 4: - If I used DNS backup services for example.com will that apply to ns1.example.com and ns2.example.com which I used for my VPS? and therefore will be applicable to other domains I host? Does this make sense? Or would I need a separate backup for each domain I host? Can I use one backup for multiple domains?
Question 5: - What are the drawbacks of hosting multiple sites under the same IP? I control all sites under these IPs
Question 6: - Can somebody recommend a good resource to learn how IP, DNS, nameservers, etc work? Any book, paid website, video... anything ? While there's a ton of info on the web, all is scattered and none seems to be too detailed enough for somebody starting to learn about this.
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.
I want to host a personal FTP server for myself and friends at home. I have 30Mbit/30Mbit unlimited optical fiber net with a static IP, so that isn't my problem. I also know how to setup the FTP on my computer.
The thing I need help with is the domain. How can I make files.mydomain.com be hosted at home while the main domain (and the other subdomains) is hosted by a host? I don't own the domain or a host yet, so I'm open for all options.
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 a server running IIS that I have a primary website hosted on, let's call it...foo.com
So foo.com is hosted and setup through IIS, resolving fine. Now, I have created a site on a different server (not on the same network) to run a subdomain called 'local.foo.com'. How do I get IIS to point all traffic for local.foo.com to the IP of the server hosting the subdomain?
I tried adding a hostname to the primary domain in IIS through "Properties" > "Web Site" > "Advanced" but I am stilling getting the Invalid Request Bad Host Name error.
Now I want to make a status subdomain on another server.
ibeat.org on one - status.ibeat.org on another.
I've edited the master zone on server one and added status.ibeat.org. and www.status.ibeat.org. ... and pointed it with A and CNAME to the other server and related IP...
I have also created the subdomain on the second server.
So my question is what should I do to get this working? This isn't!
I want to have a status link on the ibeat site ... and also:
... if server one with ibeat.org fails make it open status.ibeat.org?
Should be pretty simple - but can't get my head wrapped around it.
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?
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 an account on godaddy, with more than 20 domains registered and well, so far i have been in charge of the updates of these domains and the websites they represent. But now I have this customer who is asking me to have access to his specific domain so he can upload files by him self, the thing is that i dont have a clue of how to do it. I tried to create a new account in godaddy for this customer and tried to transfer this domain into his account and I was not allowed to. I cannot give him my username and psw cause he wont only have access to his website but all those i have registered under my account. I will really appreciate some advises to help me work this out.
