[cobalt-users] sub domain questions

["Barnabas Toth" <barnabas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am big time confused about how to setup sub domains on my RAQ3.

Here is what I was told. But yet it does not work.

I was told that I should add the sub domain in the Server Management -->
"Add Virtual Site" button, but instead of www for the host you put in
whatever you want the sub domain to be.

So when I go into the "Add New Virtual Site" page I put the following in:

Assuming I want to setup james.speckz.com as a sub domain I did the
following.

IP Address: 209.217.19.160 (I used the IP address that is associated with
the domain I'm trying to                                    create a sub
domain on).
Host Name: james
Domain Name: speckz.com
Bandwidth Limit: Left blank/un-checked
Accept Email for Domain: Left blank/un-checked
Web Access by Domain: Left blank/un-checked
Max. Allowed Disk Space (MB): 100
Maximum Number of Users: 5
Enable Shell Accounts: Checked
Enable CGI Scripts: Checked
Enable SSL: Left blank/un-checked
Enable Server Side Includes: Checked
Enable FrontPage Server Extensions: Checked
Enable Secure POP3 (APOP): Left blank/un-checked
Anonymous FTP: Left blank/un-checked

Then I click the "Confirm New Site" button on the bottom and it takes me
back the Server Management window and it shows the following for the sub
domain:

HOST NAME:
james.speckz.com

IP ADDRESS:
209.217.19.160

But still the sub domain will not work. Do I have to re-boot the server? Do
I have to change anything settings in Server Management--> "Control Panel"
under DNS parameters, where their is a setting for "Delegate Subdomain" from
the "Add..." menu?

I'm totally stuck on this one. If anyone could help I would really
appreciate it.
