Question

Is there anyone who can help me find online manuals (for dummies please!) for creating virtual sites in Raq3 servers?
-Apart from those find in cobalt.com-?

I need step by step explanations and tips.


Thank you!

manuals

As far as I know the only manuals available for raq's are the ones on their site, but they are very easy to follow, you might also try cobalts knowledgebase.

I'm guessing you are running DNS on the RaQ as well, correct? (Otherwise you probably wouldn't be asking).

I am running DNS as well.

In fact I have a very basic question that I couldn t find in any documentation:

How can I browse through I newly created virtual site (name based, not ip based) while the domain name is being processed in Network Solutions or elsewere and it is not still avalaible?

you cant

You cant as far as I know. With some box's if they were setup this way you could view the site @ http://www.yoursite.com/theirsite, but cobalts arent setup that way, I guess you could also set up a subdomain pointing to that dirtectory but again I dont know if cobalt will let you do this.

Charles is right, there isn't exactly a way to do it, however you can do that work around that he mentioned.

You can set up a subdomain with a domain that is working on the server and redirect that to the new domain that you set up that hasn't propagated yet. Although I don't use the RaQ itself to run DNS, the process should be similar (but with the added DNS steps)...

Set up the new domain on the server.

Set up a subdomain with a domain that is already working on the server. (Make sure that the domain you use is properly DNS'd for the subdomain you are about to create, or wildcarded).

Create the subdomain on the server.

Easy way: Put a simple .htaccess file in the "web" directory of the subdomain you just created that redirects to the domain that hasn't propagated yet. It will work, even though you'd think it wouldn't.

You can now access the site through the subdomain URL you created.

You can access the site's control panel using a combination of the server's IP address (marked below as xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx), and the new domain that hasn't propagated:

http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:81/.cobalt/si....newdomain.com

Note: You will need to set up a user in the newdomain, and enter the user name and pass here. If you don't know how to set up the .htaccess redirect, just email me and I'll send you a working sample.

host file

You can also create a hosts file in your /windows/system(I belive) and use until your DNS info is updated.

(/etc/hosts on UNIX)
