I've registered this domain: www.sdausk.ba and set up trap17 dns' for it.
Now I have directory SDA in http://ciroxyz.trap17.com/SDA and I want this domain (www.sdausk.ba) to point to this directory BUT I want to have www.sdausk.ba in the address bar ALL THE TIME, not just when I type it. I've set up add-on domain and redirection but once I type www.sdausk.ba in browser it goes to ciroxyz.trap17.com/SDA
I want it to display www.sdausk.ba all the time, and I don't want to put my web site in a root directory (don't want to use parked domain). How do I do that?

Can anybody help?

deleted your addon domains "some.be"

add the A record to 69.50.188.18 on the registration (eurodns.com maybe)

Addon the domain " your.be" on your cpanel as that:
1.the domain" yourname.be" but not 'www"
2.sub or directory "sda"

check it later if it's works.

guangdian, wrong advice!

What ciroxyz is looking for is URL masking script. I know I've seen it here but I'm still searching. In the mean time google it by using key words URL MASKING SCRIPT and if you want your browser's status bar to hide the original website use the key words STATUS BAR MASKING SCRIPT.

I know this because I once considered using it...but then I purchased a domain name and that all went away.

Remember, you are resorting to this option since you are pointing to a specific directory using a domain name. See if you can find a control panel in your domain control something like "URL RE-DIRECT" I know that will work without any add-on scripts because Yahoo does it (my domain registrar) and CO.NR does it too.

i don't think so.
the url masking?it's really an old thing,do our member ciroxyz really point that service,--but only a subdomain service as you said"co.nr",the custom use that "co.nr" or something like that,wanna use "mask the real url " service.but you know,our member ciroxyz have got a free Top Level domain (.be,i have registed two,i pointed and bind it of course.),the one got top level domain need masking the url,(or something else?)it just gave crazy feeling to the guests visiting his .be site.!!
ciroxyz,come up,tell us how is it goes now..

guangdian,

What you are advising is how to set the nameserver and point the domain to the hosting. A record should not be changed at all! If the master nameserver is changed the A record is over-written automatically. So you see, A record advice is wrong in this case.

The member simply want to keep TRAP17's sub-domain yet another domain name to point to a particular directory/forum to TRAP17's sub-domain.

Please stop giving incorrect advices because your advice already caused much trouble with two members in the past.

Hmm wouldn't url forwarding + cloaking be sufficent for such a task? BuffaloHELP basically mentioned to do this but im not really sure what he meant by "url masking script" , what i believe is he wants to basically cover up the trap17 sub domain and keep it there so in that case it would be a cloaked url forward , would it not? If im wrong im sorry i misunerstood something.
