View 7 RepliesWe 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?
i have about 8 different domains i'd like to point to a nameserver (ns1./ns2.mydomain.com) on Win2k3 server, but i can't get them resolved through my nameserver without creating a manual forward lookup entry for each *parked* domain separatly..
Does anyone know how to resolve "parked" domains automatically on Win2k3 DNS??
I just can't find any answer for this, everything i've found required manual creation of lookup entries..
anyone?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI 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
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?
I have 65 parked domains that are reasonably high traffic (26000 hits per day).
I'm looking to run my own VPS server to manage these domains.
I would like to have all the domains nameserver records pointing to my VPS and redirect traffic from different Countries to different parking companies based on a php script.
Can anyone reccomend what sort of VPS setup I would need as regards to RAM,bandwidth etc. And a good hosting company?
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.
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?
how to setup domain parking Name Servers so that anyone who have their domain DNS as
NS1.MYDOMAIN.COM
NS2.MYDOMAIN.COM
can park their website and the same page pulls up which is on MYDOMAIN.COM without any additional task required on my part.
I found some instructions to do this on Debian but Im not sure how I can implement that on MS DNS.
has anyone on SP ever done something like this?
I want to park a subdomain on a domain like below.
subdomain.aaaaa.com parked on xxxxx.com
if my visitor opens subdomain.aaaaa.com he will actually see xxxxx.com without know that they are seeing xxxxx.com
I had done this before using cname settings few years ago through cpanel but i dont remember that anymore.
I am moving content from old.domain to new.domain
However I am at the same time retaining the old.domain to keep the older links working
I want that the old.domain/link redirect to new.domain/link
Please advice what would be best to do for the old.domain -
1) Domain forwarding
2) Domain parking
or Both the above
(The other thing is that I would like to do 301 redirect - would this happen automatically by activating the above options - or something else has to be done)
just purchased a reseller hosting to provide a value added service for my seo clients .
I requested my domain registrar to setup my own nameserver i.e, the site i have registered for reseller web hosting nameserver, lets say it as ns1.myresellersite.com, ns2.myresellersite.com
I got a confirmation from domain registrar support that its been setup in my account. I have checked using my reseller site nameserver for a test site and the site is working fine and also shows my nameserver in whois details.
now my problem is i wanted to host a site so that new clients can go to my web hosting site i.e; www.myresellersite.com and can purchase my hosting plans through checkout.
I tried to park domain in my cpanel of reseller hosting but it says
"Error from park wrapper: You cannot park your main domain! "
is it possible to specify the DOCUMENT_ROOT of a domain when parking through cPanel? All parked domains by default point to "/public_html" directory. But I want them to point to "/public_html/myfolder".

What shall i do to park my name server domain as my web hosting domain?
i've entered the appropriate name servers
i bought the domain on name.com
how long does it take ? when i enter the domain name i registered, it just takes me to parking.php.....
i've contacted name.com support, but still no response.
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?
View 9 Replies View RelatedHow 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?
i keep on getting parking.php on and off on my site.
i use www.name.com as registrar
and cirtexhosting.com for host.
who is causing this ?
I have a domain which I would like to be used for Displaying ads. I want it similar to those mis-spelled domains which have a number of ads, in them and generate revenue.
Where can I find such hosts who will host the site-page for me and give me the proceeds from the web-page advertising.
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.
When I hit my server's domain it redirects me to one of the hosted sites' domain with a 302 redirect. It used to return the default plesk server page. How can I cancel the redirect?
View 2 Replies View RelatedOK, I am confused. I have one domain that is parked on top of another domain. I would like Mail that comes to the parked domain to be automatically forwarded to the same user name at the primary domain.
Can I change a DNS or MX record to facilitate this?
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?
I've been having some DNS problems with one of my domains for quite some time now. The domain does not always resolve - some go days without being able to access the site.
I ran a simple BASH script to show what I mean. I replaced my domain with "mysite.net" and the IP with "xx.xx.xxx.xxx".

mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx

Has anyone experienced a similar problem? I have gone over the DNS records countless times and see no problems. The site is hosted on my own dedicated server.
How do I change park domain to the main domain and vice versa for the main domain?
I have cpanel, centos, whm. Wondering if this will effect down time and such?
I have domain1.com as the main domain that I am using with cpanel and domain2.com as an addon domain that points to a different directory.
I want to move domain1.com to another server and I would like to know if I can make domain2.com the main one
what are the differences?
View 9 Replies View RelatedOkay guys, a quick question for all the gurus out there. I'll admit I'm a bit embarassed posting such an easy question, but give a guy a break, I've been using managed servers for god knows how long and I've finally decided to take a dive into administration. Everything is firewalled and secured properly, I'm just having trouble getting the ServerAlias to work right.
What happens is I go into my browser and enter in [url]walaa! It works.
Now, when I enter in [url], it does not resolve.
I have checked with "dig" the domain settings and it looks as though all of the nameservers are set up fine, this is an apache problem. I'm running apache 2.2 on Ubuntu 7.10 for all those who are interested.
Here is my etc/apache2/sites-available/domain.com:
<VirtualHost *:80>
# Admin email, Server Name (domain name) and any aliases
ServerAdmin webmaster@domain1.com
ServerName domain.com
ServerAlias www.domain.com
# Index file and Document Root (where the public files are located)
DirectoryIndex index.html
DocumentRoot /home/demo/public_html/domain.com/public
# Custom log file locations
LogLevel warn
ErrorLog /home/demo/public_html/domain.com/logs/error.log
CustomLog /home/demo/public_html/domain.com/logs/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
I've been messing with it for about 45 minutes and I'm worn out at ~4:30am and could use a helping hand from the pros.
