I recently had a wildcard setup for my domain. But now my main domain isn't loading.
The wildcard is for things like
xxx.domain.com
but not domain.com isn't loading what it used to be it's loading the files that the wildcard load.
About the 28th September the host that I was with decided to move servers and did not inform me of this. They tried moving my site and after 18 hours of being offline decided not move my site. It came back offline, only the main page displayed but nothing else works, if you click on anything it goes to 404 page error. Only problem is, the page is displaying data up to 23rd September.
I have a blog and a forum connected and both seem to have lost all the data from the 23rd to 28th September. I have since moved host since the previous host not only did not inform me that they were moving, they didnt even bother taking a backup. I have been with my new host for over a week now so the propogation is definitely complete. Now the problem is whenever I open my blog, it keeps pointing to 23rd September (I have added a lot of posts since then). If I refresh the page, then it will show the latest posts. This is not a problem with the forum though, it works fine.
I have an SMS script, and my vps from surfspeedy.com puts all mail in queue. I try to deliver from there but it isnt working, I want all mail SENT automaticly when form is filled out, dont know why it isnt!

How do I do that?
I am paying around 15 bucks for 1.0TB bandwith in a shared hosting.
i thought of getting a vps for the site, and just stream videos from the shared hosting server....
the problem would be users uploading videos, is it possible for them to upload files through VPS, and onto the shared host ?
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 posting this thread as a warning about servage.net!
My web site has been unavailable for > 1 month now, yes for more than a month.
When you go to our site www.oznotes.net you get a message
Service Temporarily Unavailable
The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or
capacity problems. Please try again later.
With servage.net Temporarily = > than 1 month.
I have been trying to get the support people to respond to me about this issue now for
weeks & there only response is that I need to be P A T I E N T.
Obviously I am being unreasonable when I complain about no web site for > than a month.
Today, I've purchased a RapidSSL Certificate for my site with Cpanel and https:// access did not work.
What I did was :-
1) Generate a Private Key
2) Create a CSR Request Certificate
3) Submit that and installed the Certificate in WHM for the site.
The site is running on a dedicated IP and it works as http:// but not with the https:// .
I checked and Cpanel did include the SSL directive for the site in httpd.conf and have rebooted the server and restarted httpd but to no avail.
I also had OpenSSL 0.9.8.3a installed and update WHM. The Apache 1.x was installed with OpenSSL Support too.
Is there a SSL Server or something which may not be active ?
I am starting to notice a range of IPs I'd rather not have access to any portion of my server's existence.
Can I add them to: /etc/apf/deny_hosts.rules
in this fashion:
12.34.567.
(This would effectively ban anyone whose IP began with these digits, regardless of what the last bracket's # is)
Possible?
I'd test, but my IP does not reset so frequently and I don't want to lock myself out of the server if it ends up working.
I run a free hosting service where users can sign up for a free blog.
With wildcard DNS and A entry, the users that sign up for a blog get the addy: theirblog.mydomain.com
This all works but there is no scalability. I have reached the limit of what my server can take.
If possible I would like to run multiple servers with just one domain.
So that when server 1 reaches its limit, it is possible to sign up new users that gets theirblog.mydomain.com (same domain) but now its physically stored on server 2.
Is this possible if you use wildcard DNS for the users subdomain sites?
I am quite new at this. I know there are ways to manage one domain on several servers, but is this possible too with this setup using wildcard dns and subdomains?
I bulk register .com names for future use, and out of all the ones I use, only about 30 have actual sites, whilst I have about 200 that are just not doing anything.
I have seen places like godaddy who whatever website people visit just gets fowarded to a landing page, and I have set it up so the nameservers all foward to my dns servers (I manage my own infrastructure).
I have seen through IIS it is possible to have a "catch all" website where any traffic goes there, however, how do I set this up in DNS?
I tried creating a zone called .com but that didnt work! and I really dont know what I should do!

tar -zcvf sqldata.$date.tgz *.sql
As it seems the server is taking that * as a character, not as a wildcard.
What would be the proper character for a wildcard symbol?
Does anyone know.. if you have a wildcard ssl cert for *.domain.com meaning you can use anything.domain.com can you also use anything.anything.domain.com (ie. unlimited subdomain levels) ?.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSo setting up wildcard DNS was easy enough, but I am trying to actually have wildcard *.*.mydomain.com
Is there any way to accomplish that, not having to add an entry for each *.actualsubdomain.mydomain.com ?
I have a server: serverA.maindomain.com
and another serverB.maindomain.com
The DNS records for maindomain.com are on serverA
so the serverB A record is on serverA which is fine (i am aware it's a risk if serverA goes down).
If I'm setting a sub domain of serverB such as site1.serverB.maindomain.com I have to setup an A record on serverA for the subdomain and I don't want to have to do this every time.
Is there anyway I can setup a wildcard A record for subdomains such as:
*.serverB.maindomain.com
Now that I have relieved a lot of frustration I can talk about my issue. We have a cpanel server and are trying to install a wildcard ssl certificate on it. As you could tell from above its not working out so well.
The cert was ordered an installed as *.domain.com . It works great on https://domain.com and [url]
However, when I do [url]its an epic fail. Its a seperate cpanel account even with its own dedicated IP address. I look in the httpd.conf file and see the :80 entry however, I need to add a :443 entry in a way that cpanel/whm will not change it next time i add an account.
When I try to install the SSL certificate in WHM on jeff.domain.com it tells me the domain does not match. So I am asking how do I get this to work? I have searched for quite a while on the net and have not come across anything that works.
Googlebot is eating up about 30GB bandwidth per month.
I want to prevent him (and other robots) from spidering:
[url]
and all derivatives thereof (e.g. [url])
Is this possible with robots.txt? How would the code look?
Will this work?
User-agent: *
Disallow: /directory1/page1.php
or do I need to somehow specify a wildcard, e.g.
User-agent: *
Disallow: /directory1/page1.php?*
I have [virtually] unlimited number of subdomains on my site, and I need SSL support on them. So, I think wildcard SSL certificate will do the job.
Can you recommend an affordable wildcard SSL cert provider supported by all the major browsers (IE/Firefox/Opera/Safari)?
one of my customers asked me if i can enable the WildCard DNS for him on Apache.
i just want to know is it any security issue with this if i enable it? can it be a security problem for my server if i enable it?
if not, how can i enable it?
I am not that much of a dns/server expert, and I really need help setting up wildcard dns for domain names.
I have 1 parent domain zone file. Let's name this domain "parentdomain.com". Now this domain is set up with private nameservers of ns1.parentdomain.com and ns2.parentdomain.com and everything works fine.
What I want to do is now have the ability to put ns1.parentdomain.com and ns2.parentdomain.com into any other domain on the web and make it forward to this Parentdomain.com web root.
How do I do this WITHOUT adding a zone file for each of these individual child domains?
The thing is that I have a project where I don't know which domains will have nameservers set to ns1/ns2.parentdomain.com, but I want them all to forward to the appropriate directory.
got the VirtualHost entries for Appache, so each Domain points to a folder.
The (Windows-)DNS runs on the server, means i have to create a new DNS Reverse-Lookup and Folder for each Domain seperatly, but this workflow appears to be pretty stupid..
Now my question:
Anyone can tell me how to setup somwhat a "Wildcard / Catchall DNS", and also "Catchall VirtualHost", so each Domain is automatically pointed to the right folder? Any scripts needed for that?
I have a virtual dedicated server (Red Hat) at GoDaddy and I'm trying to set up wildcard DNS. In short, I want:
anything.mydomain.com/thepage.html
to resolve to:
mydomain.com/thepage.html
I've taken the following steps: ......
I'm working on the idea of an email wrapping/branding service.
I'd like someone to be able to send an email to the service structuring the email address like this:[url]
The part in italics is the real destination and the part in bold is the address of my server.
I'll then parse the real destination out of the email, wrap it in some stuff and send it on.
From what I've read I need to set up a wildcard MX record. I've tried that but the emails just don't seem to get there.
I'd value your thoughts on how to deal with this problem and what questions I should be asking.
"Do you support wild card sub-domains?"
a web host has sent me the following:
"Wild card sub-domains will not work with our standard shared hosting accounts. although the DNS configuration is available to have any sub domain not listed direct to an IP address the actually hosting account will not recognize a wild card DNS entry unless you have manually added the specific name of the sub domain."
The only part I understood was the first line. Maybe it is my lack of hosting related knowledge or maybe because English is not my native language, the second sentence is very confusing to me.
What is tech rep trying to say?
I am setting wildcard nameservers that are meant to resolve any dpim pointed to them. I need for my domain parking service.
I was able to set wildcard A records with BIND, and this is good. However, some registrars seem to look for the SOA records, and it seems that BIND doesn't allow creating such records. Therefore, I need to switch to another DNS software, but I can;t find any that supports wildcard SOA records.
I want to use wildcard subdomain
This is what I should do for my job
now how can I do it?
I use LXADMIN and lighttpd
lighttpd support .httaccess? how can I enable it?
I've just got a new server with WHM/cPanel. I was upset that after I installed my *.example.com wild card SSL cert successfully that it didn't operate how I expected.....
