DNS setup on old.website.com and website.com on same IP

[markuswest]

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.
