I want to be able to assign a WebFaction site as the subdomain on a domain hosted elsewhere, e.g. www.myweb.com -- hosted by HostA cool.myweb.com -- hosted by WebFaction The DNS settings are controlled by HostA. Can I either: a. Use a CNAME entry to point the subdomain 'cool' to cool.webfactional.com? (I tried this but I get the site not configured error). OR b. Purchase a static IP and put an A record for 'cool' to the static IP, ie can you refer to a webfaction web site by it's ip address if you have a static ip? Any other way to do this? |

You can add cool.myweb.com as a domain on our control panel and then point the A record for that domain to the server's main IP address. No extra IP addresses are needed. Have a look at our Using Your Own Nameserver guide as well. |
