How to create a subdomain without service
Hi,
I need to make subdomains without using [cpanel/subdomains] because this option creates the service subdomains and proxy dubdomains that I can not avoid because I have reseller access.
1. Subdomian to directory:
'
2. Subdomian to file:
Thank you

Hello @Rocko, Can you share more information about the problem caused by the creation of the Service Subdomain aliases? If you want to remove them after the subdomain is created, then you can create the service subdomains through cPanel >> Subdomains and redirect them to the location of your preference. Thank you. 0 -
The problem is cPanel creates a lot of subdomains when a subdomain is created. Those are the service subdomains (webmail, cpanel, etc.) and proxy subdomains (autodiscover._tcp,_caldav._tcp). I need to create subdomains without them. I know I can manually delete the records in the DNS zone, but they are a lot and it would be time consuming, additionally, they are linked with the VHOSTS file and I can not reach it without root privileges. I use the Reseller interface and I can not avoid those subdomains, then I want to know the way to create a subdomain with a single A record in the DNS zones and its corresponding part in the VHOSTS file. I wonder if I can use the cPanel interface or there are files I can edit manually. 0 -
Hello @Rocko, The workaround options are limited because you do not have root access to the system. As a reseller, you will not have access to make changes to the Apache configuration file or to disable service subdomains via WHM >> Tweak Settings. You may want to consider upgrading to a VPS or contacting your reseller hosting provider to see if they can offer a solution to automatically disable proxy subdomains for your new subdomains through the use of a standardized hook. Otherwise, manually removing the A records from the DNS zone post subdomain creation is the best approach without root access. Thank you. 0
