Subdomain on different host
- by mattsmith321
Hi everyone!
I'm trying to host a subdomain for my site with a different hosting company and I'm running into issues on how to set it up.
Here are the specifics:
- Domain is registered with GoDaddy.
- Nameservers are pointing to DiscountASP.net where ASP.NET app has been happily running for couple of years.
- Would like blog.mydomain.com to point to my account with DreamHost.com to take advantage of their LAMP stack.
I have added blog.mydomain.com to DreamHost (after adding mydomain.com) via their control panel. I thought I would be able to add a subdomain entry on GoDaddy to point to DreamHost, but all they allow is blog.mydomain.com = new url.
In theory I could just take our .biz or .net domain and host it on DreamHost but was hoping I could do it all with a subdomain.
So, to summarize I'd like to know if what I want to do is feasible and if so, how do I go about it (given the constraints of GoDaddy, DiscountASP, & DreamHost).
Thanks,
Matt
