external subdomain as parked domain?

[Unselfish Gecko]

Hi! I'm new!

I've just got my account at heliohost and it is working really well. I'm having a problem configuring a parked domain though. It's probably my fault because I've never had to configure one.

So I have a domain, dierrelabs.info and I want to use thelab.dierrelabs.info to point at dierre.heliohost.com (my domain here obviously).

What should I do?

I tried to create a new NS thelab -> ns1.heliohost.com. but I'didn't have any luck. When I go to thelab.dierrelabs.info I've got a page under your main host telling me my account is not configured yet. But I can use my site when I go to dierre.heliohost.com so I don't where I'm wrong.

Thanks.

It takes a day for any domain to be added. That's why you saw the "not configured yet" page.

You don't need to do that. All that did was create a folder named thelab.dierrelabs.info. So now when your parked domain goes into effect you will have a folder like this:

 

http://thelab.dierrelabs.info/thelab.dierrelabs.info

 

 

 

Also you need to point your domain to both of our nameservers, not just ns1. You should see two seperate forms at your domain name provider to add both, like this:

 

ns1.heliohost.org

ns2.heliohost.org

 

When I checked your domain name all I saw was the first nameserver.

Yeah, I know but it does not allow that. My dierrelabs.info domain is pointing to the dns of my main host (which hosts my main site) so I wanted to try to add a subdomain as an NS node but after I've inserted the first thelab -> ns1... then I can't add a second thelab -> ns2... so I think I can't do that.

I would check with your domain name provider and ask them why you can't add both nameservers.
