Need a few ideas on how to park a www.domain on the same server as the original account
Hey there!
I have the following situation working for some time now:
Server A - my main domain where I park every www. label".
I'm guessing I could manually edit apache's hosts files and park it manually, but before trying that I'm gonna try this the right way: using cpanel only..
Is there a place where I can remove this "www" restriction on cpanel?
Or any other alternative I could try, without the need to use a different subdomain label for the website?
Thanks in advance

The www. restriction is a result of the fact that www.domain.tld is a CNAME for domain.tld But really I am more curious about the domain names you're using. Are you wanting to use www.domain.tld for your main domain and domain.tld for the mail only clients? Why not use www.domain.tld + domain.tld and then create a subdomain for the mail only clients? 0 -
First I want to point out that only one user should have access to cPanel, the cPanel Administrator. Users that are accessing the server for only their mail do not have access to the files and they should not be granted the cPanel user name and password. Second, you can't manually modify Apache's VirtualHosts on cPanel. But also the CNAME for WWW is added automatically which is why you get that error. 0 -
I actually allow my users to access their own mail-only accounts. This way I give them more "freedom" to manage their mail account, they don't depend on other people to create accounts, change a password etc. And I get more free time as I don't need to worry about those things. For the second part, I'm sad to hear that. Guess I'll have to stick to using two servers and keep things the way I'm doing right now. Thanks a lot, you were very helpful! :) 0
