Nielsterp Posted May 20, 2012 Posted May 20, 2012 Hi there, I have a website nielsterp.heliohost.org, and I own two domain names that I would like tu use here. I have created two subdomains as public_html/domain_name1/ and public_html/domain_name2/, and I have "parked the two domains and redirected them to /domain_name1/ and /domain_name2/. Now I wanted to create a "A" record for my two domains, but to create a "A" record I need an IP-address. Wich address should I point my domains to ? I know that heliohosts nameservers is ns1.heliohost.org and ns2.heliohost.org - but I can only enter ONE IP-adress in my "A" record. Then I can make another "A" record, but not with the same domain name. As I have understood DNS, a domain can only be pointed to one unique IP-address ? Where can I find the IP of my website ? Hope somebody can help me making this work ! Thanks in advance !
Byron Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 If you've created sub-domains then you want to use Addon domains and not Parked domains and you don't need to use a redirect. Also use NS Records to point your domain to us: ns1.heliohost.orgns2.heliohost.org Once you've done all of this, give it 24 hours to resolve.

Thanks in advance ! i'm not sure what are you planning with your redirect-domain ! if you wanna using A record, you can use this ip address on A Record in your domain-configuration/dns-tools (like freedns.org, not in cpanel):>>> 216.218.192.170 <<< (stevie)>>> 64.62.211.131 <<< (johnny) im not sure you can see that on your cpanel stats info (see Shared ip address )!!
Emperor360 Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 Yeah solved my personal problem, i've been thinking of the ip to use. But thanks all.
