Domain Aliases in Hsphere

Domain Aliases in Hsphere

In H-Sphere, setting up a domain alias is
similar to adding a new domain, but during the process it will give you
the option to set it up for it's own web hosting and/or mail services
or to make it an alias.



END USERS:

To create an alias, do the following:



1) Domain Settings --> Domain Info

2) Click the Add icon next to "Add new domain"

3) Enter name for your alias under "Host Existing Site", "Register a
New Domain", or "Transfer an Existing Domain" and click Submit

4) Click "Continue"

5) On the Options page choose:

- Web options: "Alias to existing hosting domain"

- Mail options: "Mail domain alias to" (optional - select this if you want email addresses aliased too)

6) Select the domain to alias from the dropdown next to each

7) Click Submit



RESELLERS:

There is now an "old scheme" and a "new scheme" for domain aliases. The
"old" scheme ensures that existing domain aliases continue to work,
while the "new scheme" allows users to add new aliases.



If you are a reseller, you will need to update each of your hosting
plans to enable your end users to add new domain aliases. There are 4
things that need to be enabled in the plans:



1) Domain alias (old scheme) --> allows already added aliases to work

2) Hosting Domain Alias --> this is the new scheme that allow them to add in 3.2

3) Mail Domain Alias (old scheme) --> similar to #1

4) Mail Service Alias --> similar to #2
