    Default Help: Want to redirect

    I've got a client with two domain names. I have set up one domain as domain.com and we'd like another domain, say, domaine.com to be redirected to domain.com so that when someone types in domaine.com, they see domain.com. I don't really see how to do this. Can someone help?

    One way is to add a .htaccess file containing this in the webroot of "domaine.com":

    redirect /index.html http://www.domain.com/

    So, you're suggesting setting up a domaine.com in WebHost Manager? Then adding that text in .htaccess in the webroot of domaine.com. Right?

    One way to do it depending on how you want the account setup.

    If domaine.com doesn't have any further use than as a redirect, just park it on top of domain.com... no further setup necessary (other than to make sure the domaine.com nameservers are pointing to the correct server)

    Might want to look at the cPanel docs regarding parked domains and redirects also:

    Thanks...makes sense. I discover that I can't add parked domains. And, I don't see anything WHM which would allow me to add it to CP. Will contact my host.
