How do I create an Addon Domain?
Definition: Addon Domain
An addon domain is a domain in addition to your primary domain. Every package supports an unlimited number of addon domains, limited only by the amount of storage and bandwidth allotted to your account.
Adding a new Domain
A new domain may be added within Control Panel under DNS > Addon Domains. There are some options you can change. First is the Domain Document Root, which indicates from where Site Content for this new domain will be served.
Definition | Description |
---|---|
Site Root | Serve from a directory within /var/www . In single-user scenarios this the best choice. |
User Home | Serve from a directory within a user home directory This domain will be managed by its user. |
Subdomain | Serve from a preexisting subdomain. This domain is aliased to the subdomain and vice-versa. |
Mailing
"Enable e-mail for this domain" will authorize the server to handle mail for the domain. If you are using a third-party mail service, this option must be disabled to avoid problems.
Once enabled, visit Mail > Manage Mailboxes to create new e-mail addresses for users on this domain. In certain situations, an e-mail address username may overlap.
After adding the domain, ensure you have changed nameservers for the domain to your user-assigned Nameservers, which you receive upon registration. Nameserver settings are changed through the company through which you registered the domain. If you registered the domain through KambizTech, then this has been done for you already.
