View Full Version : How do you do one or more redirects ?

Question:

I was thinking of setting up two different "subdomains" on my site:

1) one on the order of "support.mysite.com"'

and

2) the other would be a different domain name that maps to my regular domain name... but then gets redirected to a special subdirectory.

I know how to do #2 using an index.cgi Perl script, but if I use that method, some search engine robots won't be able to get past that script to the actual pages of my site.

Any ideas ?

Thanks !

Dave

You could always set the root directory for a subdomain in httpd.conf but you need root access to do this. Do you own your own server?
