I'd like to redirect test.mydomainname.com to a Winhost site (IP address) where www.mydomainname.com is hosted elsewhere. Can I do this? I know I can't get be the first screen of signing up without entering a www domain name or buying a new domain name. Scott
You need to create host header (either switch primary domain name in the account or add those domain as domain pointer) before you can point them to an IP of existing account. Unless you had SSL installed in your account in which case your IP is unique. https://cp.Winhost.com/sites/domainpointer.aspx https://cp.Winhost.com/sites/changedomain.aspx
You can't. Domain name has to be supplied when opening an account. Either use an existing one (You don't have to move the DNS here) or register anew. We provide domain name registration service.
You can open a new account using the subdomain; test.yourdomainname.com. The order form appends that www, but it will work if you enter the subdomain.
