iGuest 3 Report post Posted March 4, 2005 I have a .net domain, but I wasnt sure what the difference was when stating your domain or yourname.vaio-hosting.com. What would be the difference? When I requested free hosting I went with a subdomain, what would have happened if I would have put my own domain down? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iGuest 3 Report post Posted March 4, 2005 Right.Domain name: You must own, as in "https://www.google.de/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=BwkjVKfAD8uH8QfckIGgCQ&gws_rd=ssl". We can then give you webspace, you would then link your domain name to your webspace.Subdomain: For people who do not own a domain name. We give them one, but it is like in a sub directory, hence yourdomain.vaio-hosting.comDoes that help? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iGuest 3 Report post Posted March 4, 2005 So do you mean, all i would have to do is change my nameservers? and then this would take care of the hosting? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iGuest 3 Report post Posted March 4, 2005 OK, I have a .net how do i change to that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iGuest 3 Report post Posted March 4, 2005 Request domain change in a support ticket, then change the nameservers of your .net domain to the ones here. THEN allow about 1-2 days for the DNS to update, meaning your domain/site won't work in the meantime.OR you can park your .net domain in your cpanel, so you can use both the .net domain and the sub-domain. Again, allow 1-2 days for your domain to work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iGuest 3 Report post Posted March 4, 2005 I am about to purchase a ".ca" domain myself and currently have a sub-domain on this server. When i request for the change, and after it is changed, does that mean instead of the url reading "yourname.vaio-hosting.com/news" it will read "yourname.ca/news" and the same for the rest of my pages?
