Alienware Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 My host doesn't support Wildcard DNS Im wanting to run this script - www.strangehost.com/forums/problem.txt as my host doesn't support wildcare DNS i can't do this. Im wanting the host to automatically create a subdomain when the user runs the scrips... is there any other way of doing it? I have been advised by them to download Joomla... then i spoke to another superviser of theirs and they didn't knwo what to do with it. Im completely puzzled and don't know what to do.

btherl Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Are you sure it's wildcard DNS itself that your host doesn't support? There are 2 components here 1. The DNS server must send all subdomains to you. This is "wildcard dns". 2. You must be able to handle all subdomains (that's what the strangehost script is about) If #1 is ok, then #2 needs to be done at the apache configuration level, as with the strangehost script But if #1 is not ok then there is nothing you can do. Only your host can fix that, unless you have access to edit your own dns records Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
