RE: [cobalt-developers] RAQ3 virtual sites with one physical set of users and web pages

["malcolm wild" <cobaltsec@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you want to catch all email, set up the virtual site as normal
create a user with the email aliase of @hostname.domainname.isp
then enter the forwarding address.
Create the MX record as normal and your away.

Thanks Malcolm,

I've put the HTML redirect in place for the moment and will try the
.htaccess version on our test domains.

One question - what forwarding address do you enter in the catch all mail
address?  Or do it nor matter?

thanks
dave

We have this issue with many of our clients

we do one of the following

create a index.html page in the .com site to 'meta refresh' to the .co.uk
site where the real content is and set the a catch all email to forward from
the .com to the .co.uk

OR

if the client doesn't want any forwarding delay (which you get with a meta
refresh)
put a .htaccess file in the .COMs web folder with a single line
Redirect / http:XXXXXXXXXXX.co.uk
this will cause Apache to redirect for you
however you cant log in using .com/siteadmin (as it now redirects all :80
request you have to use :81 to get backinto the siteadmin

OR

As mentioned by another poster, you can give the guy a IP for all his sites
and get the DNS to do the forwarding.

OR

If you buy your domains from a 3rd party (like easily.co.uk) you could get
them to do the DNS and web/email forwarding to mask it for you.

Hope that helps

We are working on new features for the RaQ Admin to include web forwarding,
amonst other bits'n'pieces so we covered most issues before.
