[cobalt-users] Fw: external webspace question and two domains one vsite

["Jon Spriggs" <jon@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Re: message 4 - RAQ:

Yes, provided he has a fixed IP address for that webserver, or its address
is http://www.whateverhisdomainis.com/

In which case, set the www.domain.com and domain.com A records or PTR
records to the IP address or the domain name (respectively).

Its how I'm working my domain names TO a RAQ box (www.spriggs.org.uk is
registered and the DNS is managed by just-the-name.co.uk, webspace and
e-mail provided by kineticmail.co.uk - the RAQ3 I use)


Re: Message 6

Just a suggestion...

Create another domain for the .it address, but make the hostname (usually
www) to something random, and completely unusual. Then setup one user and
make its e-mail forwarding to @mycomain.com, this then makes the e-mails all
go into one box.

Check the DNS, make sure it has the DNS pointing to your RAQ, and the MX
records point to the RAQ as well... this *should* resolve it, if not...
maybe someone else here can tell me what I'm doing wrong :)

I am on a Raq3

I have registered two domains like domain.com and domain.it for the same
Virtual Site.

I would like to automatically redirect all the .it incoming traffic to the
..com. So I modified the httpd.conf this way

<VirtualHost 216.219.239.31>
ServerName www.domain.it
ServerAdmin admin
DocumentRoot /home/sites/site41/web
ServerAlias domain.it
ServerAlias www.domain.com
ServerAlias domain.com
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}                !^216.219.239.31(:80)?$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}                !^www.domain.it(:80)?$
RewriteRule ^/(.*)                      http://www.domain.it/$1 [L,R]
RewriteOptions inherit
AliasMatch ^/users/([^/]+)(/(.*))? /home/sites/site41/users/$1/web/$3
AddHandler cgi-wrapper .cgi
AddHandler cgi-wrapper .pl
AddHandler server-parsed .shtml
AddType    text/html     .shtml
ScriptAlias /_vti_bin/_vti_adm/ /home/sites/site41/web/_vti_bin/_vti_adm/
ScriptAlias /_vti_bin/_vti_aut/ /home/sites/site41/web/_vti_bin/_vti_aut/
ScriptAlias /_vti_bin/ /home/sites/site41/web/_vti_bin/
AliasMatch ^/~([^/]+)(/(.*))? /home/sites/site41/users/$1/web/$3
</VirtualHost>

All works fine but the email. Is there a way through the GUI (or manually)
to redirect also info@xxxxxxxxxx to info@xxxxxxxxx?
