    Stupid question:
    What is the purpose for adding domain alias?
    What is the value?

    I’m very new to this, if you can’t tell…

    Thanks,
    HF

    Domain Aliases mean that domain2.com can go to the same content as domain1.com making domain2.com an “alias” of domain1.com .

    I don’t have an option for Domain Alias it says Domain Pointer. Also when adding the Domain Pointer I don’t see the website that I am pointing to rather I am redirected to the Arvixe Control Panel. I should be seeing my DNN website. Please Advise.

    Ok I got my website working! So for DNN to work I had to add a Domain Pointer for my new alias site and add a Website Pointer to my original host site for that new alias.

    A domain alias is useful if one registers multiple domains to prevent squatting. However, what I need is to create a *subdomain* as an alias to a folder underneath an existing domain in my account:

    support.mydomain.com => http://www.mydomain.com/support

    The DotNet panel does not allow that possibility, it is very limited compared to other control panels.
