subdomains on my dedicated server with co.il endings (israeli) dont work though with com domains they do work i anybody has a clue for fixing this? maybe its DNS directing problems.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to figure out how many domains and subdomains I can get with each plan from Network Solutions, Enom and Yahoo. Is there any set standard of number of subdomains per domain? Network Solutions gives you one domain for two of their plans, three for the third, but says nothing about subdomains...
View 13 Replies View RelatedI have a main domain "main.com" and when I make a new addon domain "new.com", it creates a new DNS Zone for "new.com" but also adds a subdomain DNS entry to
main.com "new.main.com".
I know that is very typical way that cpanel works, and I know there are ways to work around this by using .htaccess.
What I am trying to discover is if removing the "new" subdomain DNS entry under main.com could cause any problems. Are there side effects? Will this break anything within my VPS?
System: Plesk Panel 12, updated on CentOS 6
Situation:
"Main-domain" domain with 2 "alias-domains" (301-forward). For "Main-domain" I created a wildcard subdomain. All works fine.
ToDo:
I want to create wildcard domains for both "alias-domains".
Problem:
It is not possible to create wildcard subdomains for both "alias-domains".
1. How to create wildcard-subdomains on "alias-domains"?
2. How do I disable Plesk to respond to every domain, which isnt covered by a wildcard?
I am trying to set up domains and subdomains, on my webserver, however the domains are resolving, but when accessing a subdomain I get a 500 internal server error, permissions on files are the same on both domain and sub domain level.
My virtual host files looks like this for domains and for the subdomains, and I am using Apache 2.4.7, on an ubuntu 14.04 running on a rackspace cloud server.
Domains:
<virtualhost *:80>
ServerAdmin mail@mail.mail
ServerName domain.com
ServerAlias www.domain.com
[Code] ....
Why it works on domains, and not the subdomains?
Lets say I have abcd.com as the main domain on cpanel. abcd.com has 10 subdomains.
Basically what I want to do is when I do an addon domain or parked domain I want the subdomains to basically point to abcd.com automatically. Let's say the addon/parked
domain is 1234.com
For example I have
sub.abcd.com as the main subdomain
so when I type in sub.1234.com I want it pointed to sub.abcd.com internally meaning the script/files from there however in the browser show as if it were sub.1234.com
I added the following to my cpanel .htaccess file on my hosting account:
<FilesMatch ".pdf$">header set x-robots-tag: noindex
</FilesMatch>
This was to stop Google from crawling and indexing my PDFs, will this work accross all my addon domains and subdomains (which are wordpress) on my hosting account or do I need to take extra measure?
I just did a reverse IP lookup for my newly purchased dedicated server and found out that the domain hosts two other domains, not owned by me.
By the way, I'm yet to updated the DNS address to point to my new dedicated server.
Is this normal or I need some more clarifications from my web host?
I have a dedicated server with few hundred domains on it.
How can I automate to view all traffic stats for all of the domains in the server. Currently, I have to manually view the popular domains one by one to see the stats.
Ideally, I want to view daily visitors/per domain by a email report. Is this possible via backend script/cron job?
I'm trying to find a script of some kind that determines which domains (from a list on the box) no longer point to the server. I have to believe this exists somewhere, but with searching I'm coming up empty.
Plesk and cPanel are my targets. I could build it myself with some time, but honestly, I'm one of those guys that doesn't like to reinvent the wheel when it's already out there...even if as a paid script.
In my old server (VPS) I had my dir structure as:
sitea.com was pointing to
/home/me/public_html/sitea
siteb.com was pointing to
/home/me/public_html/siteb
On my new server, I have root permissions and used Plesk to create two domains sitea.com and siteb.com . Now plesk asks for a user to be created for each domain, so created usera and userb for sitea and siteb respectively.
Now as root on my server I created the dir /home/me/ and untarred the whole backup from old server to new server and I have dirs :
/home/me/public_html/sitea and /home/me/public_html/siteb
In apache configuration in file:
httpd.include_sitea under
dir /var/www/vhosts/sitea.com/conf/httpd.include
I changed the document root to /home/me/public_html/sitea
So I thought I am all set. But it does not work. When I try sitea.com in the browser it works but for all subdirs, for eg sitea.com/images it says Access denied.
This is because the dirs I created are owned by root.
So the owner of /home/me/public_html/sitea needs to be usera for this to work ?
Again for siteb to work I need to change the owner of /home/me/public_html/siteb to userb ?
This will be painful ? At least I should be able to change the owner of /home/me/public_html/ to one owner and ensure all sites under that work fine. How do I do that ?
I think the problem is clear by now. Its that I want all my sites to work off from .../public_html/ sub dirs.
do Dedicated Server hosting plans always allow for unlimited domains?"
It would be great if it was so, but I have NO idea if it is that way. My common sense says "of course stupid, you have the whole box for yourself", but my guts tell me I should know better before assuming it.
I have a VPS and run few websites. I am not good in Apache and Linux. I just got a dedicated IP address for one of my domains. I like that the website opens just by typing the IP address in the address bar of the browser. How can I activate that?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'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.

I currently have shared hosting, but am getting VPS with another company. I'd like to keep my domains on my original hosting and direct the domains to the new server. I've been reading and it doesn't seem that hard to change for a regular domain. The problem is I don't seem to understand how to do the same for a subdomain. I keep reading about the A record and CNAME, but just don't get it.
Does anyone have any experience with this. Do I just put the IP address for the new server in the A record? I just want to make sure I know what's going on before I order my new hosting and find out it's not possible or something.
I'm also curious if mail, like myname@mydomain.com will continue to work. Or is there something I need to change for this as well.
we have domains like www.test.com in that we have created the subdomain like www.image.test.com through cpanel in same server.
Now we would like to work the www.image.test.com on different server. Can you please help me to setup this.
I just leased a Godaddy linux dedicated server with a Cisco PIX 501 firewall. Control panel is Plesk 8. Preconfigured with Ferdora 7, mysql, php,etc.
I've tried to configure multiple domains but am having problems.
I currently have several websites each running on their own Godaddy shared hosting account. I'm am trying to migrate all of these websites onto the dedicated server.
My plan is as follows:
Configure the firewall
Configure the server (add IPs)
Configure the domains from within Plesk (add client, domains, dns). But DO NOT change the name servers on the domain. I need to test the websites first.
Copy the webpages, content from the shared hosting accounts to the server.
Test the websites on the server. I am hoping that I can access the websites on the server using ip addresses, since I figure I won't be able to use the domain names without first changing the name server entries on the domains.
Once testing is completed, change the name servers on the domains so they point to the server.
Please assume the following:
Dedicated Server IP: 72.169.55.183
Firewall IP: 72.169.55.184
domain 1 = mydomain1.com
domain 2 = mydomain2.com
domain 3 = mydomain3.com
What I have done:
Configured the firewall interface (outside = 72.169.55.184/24, inside = 10.0.0.254/24)
Configured the firewall IP translation rules (outside = 72.169.55.183, inside = 10.0.0.1)
Configured server (added 3 IPs - 10.0.0.1 [exclusive], 10.0.0.2 [exclusive], 10.0.0.3 [exclusive]). I figure I need a unique ip for each domain?
Created a client called MyDomains. All domains are created under this client.
Created domain mydomain1 (assigned ip 10.0.0.1 [exclusive]). Added services ftp, ssi, php, cgi, etc. DNS 'A' records all set to firewall ip 72.169.55.184
Created domain mydomain2 (assigned ip 10.0.0.2 [exclusive]). Added services ftp, ssi, php, cgi, etc. DNS 'A' records all set to firewall ip 72.169.55.184
Created domain mydomain3 (assigned ip 10.0.0.3 [exclusive]). Added services ftp, ssi, php, cgi, etc. DNS 'A' records all set to firewall ip 72.169.55.184
I might be close, or I might be so far off that my inexperience shows.
Is the above correct? Do I need a unique "inside" ip address (10.0.0.1, 10.0.0.2, 10.0.0.3) for each domain/website? Do I need to add translation rules to the firewall for 10.0.0.2, 10.0.0.3?
How do I test each domain on the server without changing the name server entries on the domain? I have one firewall ip address 72.169.55.184 but 3 different domains. How can I test mydomain1.com, mydomain2.com, mydomain3.com?
If anyone can tell me if I have this correct, or what I have to do to get this correct I'd be immensly appreciative. Just as important is knowing how I can test each domain before I go live with it.
Whenever I try to create a user account I get the following error
Sorry, resellers are not permitted to create subdomains of the server's main domain
My server domain is www.domain.com and reseller is trying to create a user account like new.domain.com . It was working fine a few weeks back but I think since I upgraded the cpanel and whm, it doesnt allow creation of accounts anymore.
Could someone help me to fix this error please?
I own the VPS and the reseller and all other accounts.
I have dedicated server..i installed cpanel on it but when am accessing it
[url]
i am not able to open it..so i think port is not open so can any one tell me how to open ports...the os installed is centos..
A potential client asked us the followingo you allow PHP to open sockets on your server? If yes, is there any restriction on the amount of data that can be downloaded?
Will we be able to access and load our remote webpage using PHP? We will use sockets and a Pear library to accomplish this.
We are basically planning on using some content from our remote site on the new site which will be hosted on your servers. Kindly reply back at the earliest.
Is this a potential spammer?
I found out that my server has open DNS. Anyone in the world can query it for domains it is not authoritative for. Is it normal?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI've run "DNS report" test for one hosting in dnsstuff.com and got this warning (as some times before for other hosts:
---------------------
Fail:
Open DNS server
ERROR: One or more of your nameservers reports that it is an open DNS server. This usually means that anyone in the world can query it for domains it is not authoritative for (it is possible that the DNS server advertises that it does recursive lookups when it does not, but that shouldn't happen). This can cause an excessive load on your DNS server. Also, it is strongly discouraged to have a DNS server be both authoritative for your domain and be recursive (even if it is not open), due to the potential for cache poisoning (with no recursion, there is no cache, and it is impossible to poison it). Also, the bad guys could use your DNS server as part of an attack, by forging their IP address.
-----------------------
Is this anythhing important?
Just being doing a load of DNSstuff.com queries to try and get everything to "pass", I noticed that some big players in the hosting scene have either open or closed DNS servers.
Softlayer.com have closed, while liquidweb.com are open...?
I have changed all mine to closed, just because dnsstuff advises it, but is there any reason you would want them open..?
I have a server that is running linux with WHM/cPanel , some of servers are rejecting mails through server and says that your server is open proxy mail server.
how to check that our server is open proxy or stop open proxy and how can i prevent our server from spammer?
I'm having problems with users using open proxies accessing, abusing, and defacing my website.
I'd like to get a list of all open proxies and incorporate it into my site (i.e. block open proxy accesses)
I've already looked at SORBS, but that is DNS based, and I'm not sure I want to go that route. (I am running one DNS server for my own webserver to use. Don't want to mess with adding another zone for the dnsbl).
I've be much happier building my own php/mysql lookup of the proxy blacklist.
So I'm looking for somewhere I can simply download a proxy blacklist, and update it periodically as needed.
