Cobalt RaQ XTR User Manual 121
• Web server aliases—You can add aliases for Web servers; you are not
restricted to receiving web requests only on the domain name entered in the
site settings.
For the virtual site, enter additional host names or domain names for which
to accept web requests. For example, enter the aliases domain.com and
www.domain.com. This allows the same site to be accessed by the URLs
http://domain.com and http://www.domain.com.
Separate multiple entries with a comma.
• Email server aliases—You can add aliases for email servers; you are not
restricted to receiving email messages only on the hostname.domainname as
entered in the site settings.
For the virtual site, enter additional host names or domain names for which
to accept email connections (on SMTP port 25). For example, enter the
aliases domain.com and mail.domain.com.
Separate multiple entries with a comma.
• Automatic DNS configuration—You can have the server automatically
create DNS records for this virtual site. If enabled, the RaQ XTR server acts
as the primary DNS server for this site. The default setting for this feature is
OFF.
If the Web server aliases or email server aliases have the same domain name
as this site, DNS records are created for these aliases as well.
For more information, see “Automatic configuration of DNS records” on
page 127.
✍
Note: You must configure the DNS records to resolve the alias
addresses in addition to the virtual site name.
✍
Note: This feature does not register the new site name with a
top-level domain name registrar. You must register the new site
name.
