Domain Names

[InTheMarket]

Hi Folks,

Maybe I am missing something obvious but I sure can't figure out what it is!

I have a domain name on a shared IP address let's say it is xyz.com That domain is a live site.

I have another domain that is parked. Let's say that is abc.com

I want when people type in abc.com they automatically go to xyz.com

Is the only way to do that by doing a redirect in the index page of xyz.com ?

I thought if I simply added www.abc.com as well as abc.com underneath the original domain of xyz.com that would do it..but as far as I can tell it doesn't work. Is it because it is a shared IP address and will only work for a dedicated IP address?

TIA

Domain Alias is what you are looking for I believe.

Thanks Stephen..let me try that.it wouldn't let me do that before as it said the domains already existed. I will try deleting them and then see if I can add them back as aliases.
