Redirecting domain names

[dmi129]

Hi, I have a .net address registered in one location used as a mailserver and a .com website hosted in another location. I want to point the .net address at the .com website but without moving either address. I don't seem to be able to park it using the cpanel. Is there another way of doing this - bounce hosting?

You can do that through your Htaccess file.

You can use dns management to add A Records to point to sites on different servers.

Ask your web hosting do that for you. I suppose that would not be a problem for them at all.

It is very easy to do. I'll post a link from our help files. Any decent host or domain registry makes it simple to do.

Ask your webhost why you cannot park the domain - it sounds like a problem on their end

It depends on the web hosting account he is currently using. That can be this account do not have enough permission for parked domain names.

I use the following code to redirect dna dot us to spanish dot cc.
Just put the following code in the index.html file of your .net website
and change the spanish dot cc web site to your .com web site:


<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Redirect</title>
<meta http-equiv="REFRESH" content="1;url=http://www.spanish.cc"></HEAD>

<BODY bgcolor="white" TEXT="black">
</BODY>

</HTML>

Indeed. Actually there are a lot of methods which you can use to set up redirects.
