Hi all hope this is the right place to post this:

I have a primary domain w w w. f o o. c o m

I also have about 4 or 5 other domains (sites that have been combined into 1)

How can I redirect all the domains to w w w .f o o . com
ie someone enters w w w . f o o b a r . c o m ----> w w w. f o o. c o m

I have setup domain aliases and they go to the specific site but the url remains as the old one.

I am on my new dedicated windows / plesk server

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry for spaces in the domains apparently I don't have enough posts to allow links

Do you have a client-level (reseller) account? You could set up each domain individually and select "standard forwarding" at the hosting setup screen.

I have an root admin account, I just found the standard forwarding and it works.... Is there another way to do it? I am limited to 30 domains with my plesk lic would prefer not to use one up

Add domain aliases to your main domain

Many methods...

host each site individually as "real" hosting, and have a 301 permament redirect on each site to the new one (which will also tell search engines to update their links

host them as you do now with domain forwards, and make all the lnks on foo .com absolute rather than relative so as soon as the user navigates, the address bar will change

host them as frame-forwards and a check in the foo .com index to break out of frames and reload

there areother methods as well ...
