Mapping Subdomains To Different VPS's
Dec 11, 2008
I 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'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 have website www.mydomain.com on apache.
I want user when typing that URL it redirect to www.mydomain.com/home immediately.

I have a new domain for an online store which I am trying to map to a certain web server(launchsplash_com) for just their Launch Page to show up as homepage when my website is accessed (the ecommerce software has its own default homepage, which I prefer not to show up). The registrar for the domain is Godaddy but hosting is done with a different company - Server Intellect.
The issue is mapping my domain to Launchsplash's server does not seem to work. And I am not sure if I am doing the right settings through the host control panel. As per LaunchSplash company's instruction - I create a CNAME record name - www_mydomainname_com and CNAME record data - mydomainname_LaunchSplash_com
Since the domain is not being hosted with Godaddy, the total dns control for making dns changes is disabled in godaddy control panel.
I do not wish to do the forwarding option, since that shows up the forwarded domain name.

If you want to use several domains for your single website, from SEO-reasons or from any other reasons (which?) is it better to forward your domain to that sub-domain or should it be mapped in the DNS in CNAME?
mydomain.com
mydomain.com/nameoftheotherdomain = nameoftheotherdomain.com
It's not the same issue like with Google Apps, whether you should use your own domain, e.g. sites.yourdomain.com or whether you should use the domain offered by Google for your Sites. The reason is that theotherdomain.com is a part of the single website called yourdomain.com, thus, it is not an external website hosted somewhere else.

i currently have a site on a .co.uk domain. my client would like the "main" domain to be .com instead. I should add that BOTH .com and .co.uk will be used.
The company is advertising itself as thesite.com, so people will associate the business with www.thesite.com, not .co.uk.
I have both domains, and I understand domain mapping is used for this purpose, but before I go and screw up anything, could someone please clarify.
Is it possible to "domain map" so that visitors go to www.thesite.com, they will see the website as .com, but the site itself will actually be on the ".co.uk" server.
I don't particuarly want to transfer the site from the .co.uk to the .com and set up a redirect.
I know I could use a redirect .com to .co.uk, but the client specifically wants ".com" to be the site visitors view. (they bought .co.uk and set the site up first, just to be annoying)

I'm not even sure I'm asking this in the right place, but here we go.
We are working on creating some load tests for our system and we need to figure out how a "normal" user navigates our system.
Is there software out there that will show use how a user navigates our system via reading the apache logs? Will awstats do the trick?

just restored a server from an rsync backup. problem now is that i have a couple of hundred accounts all under root, when they're supposed to be resellers and sub accounts of resellers.
any idea if its just some file which contains all the mappings or do i need to go through all these hundreds of accounts and reassign them?

I'm not that good at IPTables so bare with me. I think I got the rules correct though but it doesn't work Here is what I am trying to do.
I have a server at let's say 111.222.11.10(I will call this server A) and another at 111.222.11.20(I will call this server B).
These servers are in same datacenter.
What I am trying to do here is when a user accesses port 2000 on server A, I want server A to forward/proxy the port to 2000 at Server B. I have tried the following so far.
Non of them worked.
iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 2000 -j DNAT --to 111.222.11.20:2000
iptables -I FORWARD -p tcp -d 111.222.11.20 --dport 2000 -j ACCEPT
[root@n1-cluster ~]# iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 2000 -j DNAT --to 111.222.10.20:2000
[root@n1-cluster ~]# iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p udp --dport 2000 -i eth0 -j DNAT --to 111.222.10.20:2000
iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 2000 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -i eth0 --dport 2000 -j DNAT --to-destination 111.222.10.20:2000
Yes, I have done service iptables save and start.
Also iptables -F
Any ideas on what may be wrong?

I have a website where users can sign up and create a site. They can access their website by typing username.example.com.
However, I would like to add to this the ability to buy a domain name and point it to username.example.com
so example.com/guestbook.html would translate to username.example.com/guestbook.html (external domain and associated user are mapped in the database)
Do I need my own DNS server for this or is there a simpler solution? Also, how should the database lookup be performed for this to work?

Currently my companies global website “domain.com” is hosted in a shared hosted environment, our own U.S. website “us.domain.com” is hosted at our datacenter.
Here is my question, we have a redesign project. My goal is to lose the “us.domain.com” sub-domain and move our new U.S. site under the "domain.com" domain using a “/us/” folder delineation.
Is it possible with modern web server technology to setup a something like virtual directory/folder, redirect, alias or remote mapping of the “/us/” folder that points to a separate server hosting our U.S. site outside of shared hosting environment for our "domain.com" site, e.g.?
• Domain.com/<global website content/structure > - Hosted at in a shared environment on Web App Server running Coldfusion
• Domain.com/us/<U.S. website content/structure> - Hosted at our datacenter on Web App Server running IBM WebSphere
Unfortunately I cannot merge the two sites together based on the web server technology and lack of budget/resources to accomplish.

any idea if this is possible? basically what i'd like to do is make a "virtual folder" in my linux box that is actually a connection to an ftp account on another server.
so for e.g. if i say cd /myftp it'll show the contents of that directory as though it was a standard folder, however it is actually connecting to some other machine via ftp?

I used to have a server which had domain mapping via wordpress... a friend of mine had this up for me and every time I added a new website to the same server/ip-address, I just modified the .htaccess for example:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} domain.com
RewriteCond $1 !^domain
RewriteRule (.*) /domain/$1 [L]
Anyway, I no longer have this server and as a result, I have websites that are not being mapped correctly, many domains point to the same ip address.
I have tried to use name-based virtual hosts but it seems as if this is being ignored... I did restart Apache by sudo service apache2 restart
I'd really like to get my websites working again without buying multiple ip-addresses.

So I have question regarding apache on windows and hard drives.
I have a virtual rack what i connected all my servers upto, Then I mapped all my servers hard drives together so they can all communicate and share data from each other.
But I have apache installed on 1 server hard drive C:/
Can I run apache from that mapped hard drive on the other servers ? Or would that cause problems ?
Also they are all windows 2008 running the latest apache from here.

I need a shared host account that can support wildcard mapping of all HTTP requests through the ASP.NET engine. This is required in order to fully support the UrlRewriting techniques I want to use. Anyone know of any affordable hosts that can support this? Of course, as my site grows I'll consider upgrading to a VPS (and further depending on the growth).

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?

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'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?

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.
