Post Reply? I have some questions involving htaccess and CNAMES. Is is possible to have a virtual subdomain with Dreamhost through htaccess? I think it is possible but my htaccess code is just wrong. RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.mydomain.com RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^sub.mydomain.com RewriteRule .* /directory Is it possible to create a CNAME for example, old.mydomain.com, that will redirect to www.otherdomain.com. Where the otherdomain.com is not host by Dreamhost? From what I have read this is possible if I add “old” as a CNAME and point it to www.otherdomain.com.
