Hi all, Hope someone can help me I have a problem adding c0-domains here is my situation:- I have a domain name registered with UKReg, Now I have pointed the A Name and MX records to my server IP address. I have created the site www.bnasystems.co.uk and it works fine. I have also added the co-domain care.bnasystems.co.uk and have fowarded it to a folder in my 'web' root called support, so that should work fine, However if I try to locate: http://care.bnasystems.co.uk it doesnt work! - When I create the co-domain do I have to check 'create dns'? When I created www.bnasystems.co.uk I didnt have to tick 'create DNS' Hope someone can help, Thanks in advance, Bobby
All you really need to do is create in the UKReg an other A record with as A host: care, and point it to your server's IP. You do not need to tick: 'create dns' as you are using the UKReg DNS server. An other way of doing this is to create a CNAMES (Aliases) named: care, and point it to @. You will also need to do this at UKReg. Option one is better I think.
This works perfectly fine for .com domains but I don't think UKReg enables you to add A & MX Names for .co.uk domains as the option when I try to configure a .co.uk domain doesnt appear. How would I go about setting up my own domain server? Is it just a case of creating a .com domain, pointing hosts ns1.XXXX.com and ns2.XXXX.com to my ISPConfig server and then on the .co.uk domains (that I want to host on my DNS Server) change the nameservers to: ns1.XXXX.com and ns2.XXXX.com and create a DNS Master for the .co.uk domain on nmy ISPConfig server?
