View 0 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 am running a CentOS 6.5, 64-bit server with Plesk 12.0.18, and need to install a wildcard SSL for one of the domains/sub domains hosted on this server.
So you have the csr and private key installed (and domain.crt?), you just need to open..
1. COMODORSAAddTrustCA
2. COMODORSADomainValidationSecureServerCA
On your desktop and combine the two files into a new intermediate.crt file and upload that as the CA File.
But I'm not sure why you can't add it as text.

I have several domains configured in my Plesk, and one of them is set as the "Detault site" under Home >> Tools & Setings > IP address management.This has the unpleasant side effect that any domain I point to this IP renders content from the Default site unless it's setup. How can I configure the default site to render content from only one domain?

The server was unable to lookup an an A entry for its hostname (vps.glse.net). This is generally because the entry was never added. However this could also be the result of your nameserver(s) being down. If you would like to attempt to automatically add the entry
After that I add the A entry, and setup the Resolver and restart BIND, after that it is usually working again until I have to do it again the next day.
The hostname (vps.xxxx.net) resolves to . It should resolve to 72.18.xxx.xxx. Please be sure to correct /etc/hosts as well as the 'A' entry in zone file for the domain.
Some are all of these problems can be caused by
/etc/resolv.conf being setup incorrectly. Please check this file if you
believe everything else is correct.
my /etc/hosts
72.18.xxx.xcentos-cp--template
72.18.xxx.xxxvps.xxxx.net vps
72.18.xxx.xcentos-cp--template.xxx.com centos-cp--template
72.18.xxx.xxxvps
127.0.0.1localhost
my resolver.conf
nameserver xx.xxx.xx.xxx
=> I tried adding the nameservers from the server here but that didn't help so I had to use that of the hosting company
The A entry is empty, as stated in the mail,
What configurations are needed on a whm/cpanel vps hosting account in order to be used as a mail server for a domain being hosted on another server? The domain's mx entry have already been altered to point to the target mail server.

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.
Currently i am running my webhosting at server A and email hosting at server B.
Possible for me to make the email mx entry available on both server instead server B?
I recently setup a few new webservers, had everything working fine, I am giving each website a dedicated IP, I was trying to tweak the DNS output on dnsstuff.com, I was getting a warning for:
"Mail server host name in greeting"
So, I added a "a entry" under the particular domains DNS to point to the main server IP, that did take care of the "mail server host name" but come to find out that really screwed up alot of stuff..
For instance, the site that has the dedicated IP and the new "a entry" will not work now unless I change the sites IP in the WHM to point to the main host IP, If I change it back to the dedicated IP or any other dedicated IP, it just gives a list of "dir files" for that domain.
Is there anyway to get rid of this "a entry" that I have added for that domain to take it back to normal.
Also, if I take a domain name that is already in the system and working fine with its own dedicated IP, and try and move it to a new dedicated IP it messes that domain name up also, and then can only be accessible by changing it back to the main server IP..
I do not need more than 1go space / 250go bandwith. Do you think I can have this for about 20-25 $?

I am trying to create a CNAME entry in my DNS tables and have no clue where to begin.
I have did a search but didnt find anything that gives reference on how to do it just how to fix errors.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to learning how to accomplish this task.
we are expanding to offer vps. i have seen diferent servers config. but am not sure what to choose in terms of hardware
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have often seen the entry mailnull in the mail logs of exim.
I don't understand it. What is meant by mailnull? where can i get information about it?
Google's mini search appliance:
[url]
hardware wise, it's just an out-dated supermicro's mini 1U setup (P8SCT in SC512L chassis, prescott 3G, 2G DDR2, 1x WD 250G) which can be easily upgraded to newer, greener configuration such as PDSMI+ or PDSBL-LN2 board with Conroe/Kentsfield CPU, 4G~8G RAM, even raptor 10k drive.
what do you guys think the market out there for this type of appliance? will updated hardware boots the performance by much?
I created a subdomain, delete all entries except the NS and A Records. I changed the NS records. Now i have to delete the Soa Record for this subdomain. I don't know, whether this was the correct way...

Today when this problem resurfaced i did not restart Apache and looked for in apache logs and saw this strange entry in apache Error Log;
[client my.ip.xx.xx] script '/my/website/httproot/mdqt.php' not found or unable to stat
The above was in apache Error Log, above is my ip address, and i never requested a file named mdqt.php, in fact no file by the name mdqt.php even exist on my entire server.
I then looked for mdqt.php in error logs and saw several requests made for this file and from various IP addresses.
i understand this is what causes my http to die.
When you try to change the password of the client to login the control panel gives an error: SQLSTATE [23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1062 Duplicate entry '<login>' for key 'login'
The impression that instead of UPDATE done INSERT.

when im trying to enable spam filter for a particular email account i get this mysql error:
Error: SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1062 Duplicate entry 'xxxx@domain.com' for key 3 (mail id i hid it for security reasons xxxx@domain.com)..
i searchd in the psa database but could not find any duplication...
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 RelatedI 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?
