RE: [cobalt-users] domain forwarding, or is that different - Raq3i

["Paul Shuttleworth" <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The easiest way to do this is to use the web alias feature on your Raq (at
least on a Raq4)
Set up the DNS for each domain as usual.
Then in the domain you want to serve all the other domains enter the domain
names in the web alias for the master site.

ie.

Site1.com - master

site2.com,site3.com,site4.com - all need to point to site 1.com

go into site1.com /site settings

add site2.com, site3.com, site4.com (also www.site2.com, www.site3.com,
www.site4.com)

save changes

and then any requests to site2.com or www.site2.com site3.com or
www.site3.com site4.com or www.site4.com will all be resolved to site1.com
or www.site1.com (if you have set both up in the DNS)

You will see http://site1.com/anypage.htm when any of the 4 sites is
requested in the browser address line.

Hope this helps.

Paul.
