    Hi,

    On my server I have 2 accounts website.com & old.website.com but I have seen if I type old.website.com in my browser I get redirected to the website.com, how can I fix up the DNS record to point to old.website.com when I type old.website.com in the browser? or is it a better idea to get a separate IP for the old.website.com?

    Best Regards,
    Lloyd

    Hi,

    I have gotten a new IP from my host, I figure that's how I will solve this problem, by adding the old.website.com to the new IP and on the primary account (website.com) DNS Zone I will add a new A record with old & www.old with the IP and then that should work.

    Best Regards,
    Lloyd

    Hello :)

    You may also want to check to verify there are no .htaccess files within the account with rules that are redirecting requests to the original domain name.

    Thank you.
