Partition my domanin into subdomains on a single server

Hi! Newbie here. After frustrations on sme server i came her hoping for an answer. My scenario is that i have a domain upan.edu.ph which i want to be made into it.upan.edu.ph, acct.upan.edu.ph, etc.. Upan.edu.ph is registred to a registrar my first question is how do i configure bind to have this subdomains and is my scenario doable in virtualmin thanks

Howdy,

What you're interested in is actually pretty straight forward... you can simply create a Virtual Server for any domain or sub-domain.

When you choose "Create Virtual Server", you can enter either "upan.edu.ph" or "it.upan.edu.ph" or any of the other domains you mentioned.

Have a good one,

You mean to say no more tweaking on my dns records? Virtualmin would take care of thta as well? I beleive I need to add some CNAME records on my zone. Can you guide me on the track i have to take to work this out thanks eric

Yup, Virtualmin tries to make life a bit easier :-)

Adding any domain to a Virtual Server or Virtual Sub-Server will generate the related DNS records.

To add additional records, you can choose the domain you wish to alter using the drop-down on the top-left, then go into Services -> DNS Domain, and add your desired CNAME records into the "Name Alias" screen.
