| Posted by MaxS, 08-17-2005, 04:14 PM | | Hello,
Can someone please suggest a few resellers? I need to find a reseller who will allow me to edit the httpd.conf file ( For a script ).
ResellerZoom said that I wouldn't be able to do so.
I have a $15/mo budget. Looking for atleast 1gb/15gb.
Cpanel/WHM please.
Thanks,
Max

You could go with VPS or contact some resellers that you're interested in and ask them if they would make the desired edits for you.
I would image that as long as the change is reasonable quite a few hosts would offer to do this for you.

|

Straight from the forum post:
Most of its jibber jabber to me, I'm not much of a server admin.

| Posted by cartika-andrew, 08-17-2005, 11:56 PM | | Well, as is usually the case with these sorts of requests
You dont actually need to change httpd.conf to accomplish this sort of functionality.
In H-Sphere (though I cant speak for cpanel - I am assuming it is similar) - simply request a dedicated IP. Now every request made for an "unassigned" subdomain will display the root site.
example - root site = domain.com
sub1.domain.com
sub2.domain.com
sub3.domain.com
will all display the root site (unless you have specifically created a subdomain with full dns zone -ie support.domain.com-)
Hope this helps...
**edit, Im also assuming you can handle something similar to this with .htaccess, but, I havent checked around to confirm

|
| Posted by hostingoption, 08-18-2005, 02:34 AM | | I think resellers are not able to edit the httpd.conf file, you can chose the VPS
Or
Try to do this with Mod_rewrite then you get more control on it
Best of luck
