Subdomain Help

[4evrblu]

I recently spotted a tutorial here: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=19527

A great tutorial on the subject of subdomains.

I tried using the suggestion with an htaccess file that reads:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^cfhealth.cfcure.com$ [OR]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.cfhealth.cfcure.com/MT/$

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.cfcure.com/MT/cfhealth/ [L,R=301]

basically I want cfhealth.cfcure.com to be redirected to http://www.cfcure.com/MT/cfhealth/

I uploaded the .htaccess file to my www directory, and I tried the subdomain, but it failed to open, saying :: Safari can’t open the page “http://cfhealth.cfcure.com/” because it can’t find the server “cfhealth.cfcure.com”.

What did I do wrong?

Your server must have wildcards enabled in order for this to work.

For example, on my home server, I am running virtual hosts, so therefore I have the following:

ServerAlias *.mydomain.com
ServerName mydomain.com

* is a wildcard.
