Hello all Cpanel users and Crew... This is my first post after searching google and this forum for a solution to my issue. Let me explain what I am trying to do. I got a expensive adv. comodo ssl multidomain ssl cert. (the one that displays the company name) I got it for my domains: Domain1.nl Domain2.nl Domain3.nl Domain4.nl Installed oke, so far so good, yet I tought it also would include the default www. alias. You guess... it does not. >> BUMMER. I do redirect www. requests to non www. URL. But the SSL www.domain1.nl www.domain2.nl etc. Now I need to create a subdomain www. to allow me to install the cheap SSL cert. on www.domain1.nl. Then users will not get an error when to type in or link to where my expensive SSL is what shows the company name. The thing is, Cpanel will not allow me to add WWW. as a subdomain. Its bound to the root. as you would normally expect. But I need it to point to another dir so I van install the extra SSL cert and setup a redirect. Who can help me out here ... :) ?

  Update: I tryed to make an httpd.conf include file... And placed ServerAlias inside tag. Yet it only add's that line to httpd.conf and not makes www. not pointing to the domain. Any idea how to make www. not a serverAlias?

  Update2: Edited the file @ /var/cpanel/userdata/*USER*/domain.TLD removed the alias there. Ran /usr/local/cpanel/bin/build_apache_conf Restarted apache... still www.domain.nl is active. Made backup of httpd.conf Edited httpd.conf to remove server alias www. Ran /usr/local/cpanel/bin/apache_conf_distiller --update service httpd restart www.domain.tld is still working :-X looking at httpd.conf server alias are still there :-X

  Hello :)

  Now I need to create a subdomain www. to allow me to install the cheap SSL cert.

  
  You should be to install the certificate for the domain name with the "www" prefix via: "WHM Home >> SSL/TLS >> Install A SSL Certificate On A Domain" What error message do you receive when completing this action? Thank you.
