Getting Www.domain.com To Work, Domain.com Resolves Correctly, Just Not With Www
Okay 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.

Domain.com Or Www.domain.com For SSL Certificates
I'm setting my first eCommerce site and right now I need to resolve the following issue. I need to install (well, the hosting company will do it for me) a SSL certificate and I need to know what is best or common practice, to use domainname.com or www.domainname.com I don't know what difference it would make but it seems to do so because the hosting company is asking me to choose. Being that I'm clueless about this, I would also appreciate a quick explanation on the benefits or downfalls of using either one.

Site Www Does Not Work But Without Www Does
Like the title says, I just moved my site over to my own server, and it is running cpanel. Anyways the main site [url]works, but [url]does not. What is really strange is, [url]works fine as does [url] So I figure there is something I have to do to get it all to work right. The other issue is that if you are logged into [url]but goto [url], you are not logged in anymore, but if you go back to the original link, then you are still logged in. This happened on the other guys server before with the main site as well.

Redirect Domain To Www
The thing is that we have a dedicated server at our company hosting several domains, and right now you can access them both with the www prefix or without it, but there is no redirection in case you access without it, and this has negative impact with SEO related stuff. I have the rewrite apache module enabled (I tested with a script I found on the net), and I also tried a test configuring a single domain including some code about redirection. Right now I'm getting a nice "500 Internal Server Error" This is the code in .htaccess Code: Option +FollowSymlinks RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{http_host} ^mydomain.com [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ [url] (mydomain.com is, obviously, a replacement for the real domain in both cases)

Emails To Www.domain.com Disappear
I can get emails to admin@mydomain.com, but i really wanted to alias it so emails to admin@www.mydomain.com go to the same account. MX records for www.mydomain.com and mydomain.com both go to mail.domain.com. . This is on a dedicated server, centos, with exim doing the email handling. I was thinking maybe it would be like an alias of some sort, or somewhere to put a list of combinations i can accept email for.

Www. Doesn't Work
today I noticed that whenever I type any of the domain names on my server with a "www." in the address bar, it simply says "server not found". When I remove the "www.", it loads the site? This is a major issue. It never used to be this way, but I noticed it today. Where should I edit? Could it be "named.conf"? Or maybe just DNS cname settings in plesk?

Www Wont Work
when I try to go to a site of mine with the www like this one [url] It won't work but if I take out the www like this[url]it does work. I'm not sure what could be causing this. As far as I'm aware everything is setup okay. I understand it's impossible for anyone who reads this to properly diagnose the issue without access to my server.

WHM: Domain Name Server (DNS) Sometimes Resolves To Wrong IP
I have a dedicated WHM server (qumbia.org) with several CPanel accounts, among them: - qumibiao (qumbia.org). - qumbiaca (qumbia.ca). Both of these accounts were set to the same ip (70.86.221.122). 15 days ago, I changed qumbiaca to the ip 70.86.221.123 Since, some requests (about 1% of the total according to my logs) for qumbia.ca are still serving up what's in /home/qumbiao/public_html I know next to nothing about this, but perhaps some ISPs have cached the 70.86.221.122 IP and are directing requests there? Still, why wouldn't WHM, upon receiving such a request, resolve it to the right address, it being on the same server? My Time to live record is set to 24 hours on my DNS, and the expire header set to 41 days. Might it be a good idea to set up a new DNS (NS3.QUMBIA.ORG) on my WHM and give that DNS to qumbia.ca? Would this force the ISPs to reset their cache? Or does the problem lie elsewhere? Should I just wait out the 41-day expire period and hope for the best?

Domain Name Not Work
We registered a domain: ediblebackyard.com and have set up the account in a dedicated server. However, web page in this domain won't show up I believe I've setup everything okay becuase I've setup several other domains in exactly the same way, for instances, transframe.com, 3dtime.net. They all work but only the ediblebackyard domain refuses to show. I performed a domain name search, other domain shows the name server as well as the IP address. But ediblebackyard.com only shows the name server but no ip address listed. I use Plesk in the dedicated sever. Is there anything possible wrong when I create the account for the domain?

777 Permissions For Www
Let me start off with saying: I haven't had any suspicious activity, nor do I think I was compromised. I logged in as root, and was simply clicking around my dedicated server and came across a few folders with permissions at 777. ALL are above /public_html Irregardless, is this safe? I recall reading a bunch of topics on here, that /tmp needs to be hardened. Isn't this also above /public_html? For one example: /var/tmp is chmod to 077 ..inside is a bunch of sess_ files Is this folder open to hacking?

Setting WWW Prefix
I have a problem with a couple of the domains on my reseller account. Although apparently configured the same as other domains I am unable to set the default URL to use the www prefix using .htaccess. When I try I get a redirect loop error. You can visit one of the problem domains here: [url] If you stick www in front you will see that it resolves to the non-www version. Any idea where this is taking place?

Www.AFreeWebHost.com - First Impression
When you visit www.afreewebhost.com , you don't see an ugly portal with to many links, advertisements, etc... You get a nice...HTML website. That's right, no ASP, no PHP, but a simpel, but very good looking, HTML website. Is it a bad thing? Yes and no. "Yes" because it has "founded and owned by one person" written all over it and "no" because my experiences with small or "one-man" companies have been much better then with companies with many employies. Free Web Hosting The free hosting offer looks good. Even though they require advertisements on your free site, the free hosting is not going to bring in any cash. 1GB webspace with 20GB traffic. That's more then enough for 90% of all websites on this planet. And a 468x60 or 120x600 banner and a textlink don't bother anyone. Most site-owners use Adsense or something simular to cover the montly costs anyways. I do not own a free hosting account. But from the looks of it I think that both free and payed services offer the same features and support. The company is able to do that because they also make money with site-/banner-designs. The little bit of money that they might loose with free hosting can easely be covered by a few design-assignments. Pro Web Hosting You don't see it very often. A company that offers monthly prices and gives a discount for 3 months. Most companies only offer yearly sign-ups and some of them give a 14-30 day money-back guarantee. But if you are not aware of everything you "agree" to when you sign up for a year and/or when you do not have a valid reason for asking your money back, you will not get it back. 4$/month for 5GB with 100GB traffic or 3$/month for the same deal when you sign up for 3 months. Personally, I think those prices are very realistic. The best deal is to go for 3 months offcourse. And the more expensive packages have the same "GB for the buck" value. The most expensive package will cost you 22$ for 50GB webspace with ONLY 500GB traffic. Yes, I say ONLY, because for that amount of money there are better deals out there. Don't get me rong, I still think this is a realistic price. But, and there is a bug BUT, I do not beleave that people go for the most expensive package without any experience with the company. The people that do pay 22$ for 50GB with 500GB traffic are the ones that started off with something small that has grown to something bigger, people that are satisfied with the features an the support that they've had for some time. Nice offer, but are they honest?CPanel -> Yep, it's there. Fantastico -> Yep, it's there. No Ads Required -> Offcourse. Daily Backups -> Yep, tested and working. 99.9% Uptime Guaranteed -> Only time will tell. 24x7 Support -> It's more like 12x7 Support, wich is 100% acceptable in my book. Everything else that is listed on the webiste is there and it all works 100%. The company has not modified the CPanel features in any way, wich is understandable, but there are features that I miss. Features that I have encountered before ( don't ask me for names because I don't remember them ). For example, it's possible to backup every single file on your webspace in one huge compressed file but it's not possible to backup the content of just one folder, one add-on domain. So if I want to backup a small website like my clansite, I have to backup all the other megabytes/gigabytes that are on my webspace. All other sites and files that are not even remotely related to my simpel clansite. AFreeWebHhost.com is up-to-date and offers Fantastico De Luxe 2.10.4 r17 This is the latest stable release of Fantastico. Even though many scripts are not up-to-date, it's basicly "the best you can get" at the moment when it comes to auto-installers. For those of you who don't know, Fantastico allows you to install PHPBB, SMF, PHP-Nuke and many other platforms without any knowledge. All you need to know is how to click a link How about the service? So far, so good. Because I had to wait about 24 hours before I could actually use and view my webspace, the company gave me 25GB extra traffic and an extra month for free. Now that's what I call good service! ( maybe the company knew about my Servage.net review ) After sending many emails back and forth I was able to view my testpage. And even though I did not contact the company about any other issues, a day or two after our last contact they contacted me once again, just to see if everything was working ok. When I made my first backup I got the message that it got saved in the "home" directory. I wasn't able to find my backup so I contacted support. Within 12 hours I got a reply. Some of you might feel like 11-12 hours is to long, but I rather wait 11-12 hours for a decent, friendly, HUMAN email with usefull information instead of getting a "human-robot"-hybrid reply with noth enough information. Uptime? Uptime can be checked on [url]. This is the parked domain on my webspace. For my websites I use addon-domains. Speed? Download this file to test the speed: [url] I have the "Pro Webhosting - Starter Package". Visit www.tgow.info to check how fast pages load. Would you recommend this host based on your first impression? I sure would. All the features are working just fine, the speed is not "superb" but good enough and the support so far is great. My rating based on my first impression: 8/10.

For example - if I were to go to - www.domain.com and then access a sub like /test - it would show up as domain.com/test - dropping the www.

Www Record Change
i've had the same issue come up a couple of times recently and i'm looking for a bit of advice before i go any further. i'm doing web development on a couple of websites where the companies want to preserve the mail exchange set up with their existing hosts, but wish to move their website to a different hosting platform. i have just set up a VPS which i want to host the websites on, however, i am unsure if i can simply request that the existing providers change the www record to point to my VPS IP address. is this sufficient or do i have to ask the hosts for a nameservers change?

I am moving my shared hosting website to a vps at new provider. Is it usual to place email server running on the same VPS as my website? Should I worry about email bombs taking out my www or a www DoS attack shutting down my email? I ask because my new provider doesn't offer email on other own dedicated server. I have to run it on my VPS.
