Sub domain to sub folder DNS help!
Old 2008-08-01

Hi guys,

I came across this problem...

How do I use DNS configurations to point a sub-domain to the main-domain's sub-folder?

Right now, the sub-domain is going to its own account, instead of going to a folder within the main-account.

WHM (cPanel) has this option and can be setup automatically, but Plesk doesn't seem to have it. It requires me to manually configure the DNS which I have no idea how to...

Please help!

Thanks!

In cPanel, subdomain is just an masked alias that goes to a folder inside the main domain's "public_html",
but in Plesk, subdomain is an actual account in which has its own "mail", "stats", "config", and its own "httpdocs".

I wonder, if there's anyway that in Plesk, the subdomain is just a simple alias that short-cuts to a folder, instead of an entire account.

I have contacted Media Temple and so far none of them techs know how to set it up the cPanel way.....
