What are the correct settings for a subdomain in ZoneEdit?
- by user99572_is_fine
I want to create a subdomain for a site hosted by Jimdo (a DIY website builder).
Jimdo does not allow subdomains however. I am trying to find a workaround where a subdomain is hosted elsewhere but everything else remains as it is. E.g. I use their email service and I want to keep it.
The domain is not hosted by Jimdo, but by a host that allows me to edit my zones.
It points to the Jimdo NS.
I have independent hosting where I have NS information. This is where I want to host my subdomain.
My thinking was that I could use ZoneEdit as a "fork" that allows me to keep using my Jimdo page like before and, at the same time, directs a subdomain to another host. Provided this is possible:
Question:
How do I configure ZoneEdit CNAME or NS records to forward visitors to my website and my email to my Jimdo mail account while pointing a subdomain to another host?
