I want to host multiple domains and subdomains. What is the best hosting company to go with?

I’m not necessarily looking for dedicated hosting, either. Shared would probably be fine. I’m just wanting to see what most people are using.

http://www.JuicyHosting.com lets you host multiple domains and subdomains stating at under $5

How do I specify a port for a subdomain?

February 21, 2010 123 hosting 1 Comment

I’m running Apache for web hosting and Microsoft IIS for file hosting. How can I add a subdomain and have it point to the IIS server?

Currently:
www.domain.com -> hosting, port 80, Apache
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:123 -> remote desktop, port 123, IIS

What I want:
www.domain.com -> hosting, port 80, Apache
sub.domain.com -> remote desktop, port 123, IIS

Is there any way to do this?

That´s up to your DNS configuration. You DNS has the information for any subdomain. Just set it up so anybody who looks for the subdomains goes to the IIS (a CNAME or PTR record). Then, configure the IIS to listen on port 123.

The browser first looks for the address (domain and subdomain) then for the port on the host.
