This is very interesting discussion to me and I'm sure it will be something that comes up for a lot of other on-rev users. So, if possible, I hope one of you can follow up with a report on which method is better/easier, or has any problems in actual use.

I haven't toyed with it on on-rev yet, but I know that other ISPs limit remote access to things like MySQL based on IP addresses. This kind of thing would be a problem for running a separate secure on- rev subdomain for transactions from another server, so if there's a definitive way to do it I think it might be useful to get the Rev folk to publish it to the website.

Thanks,
Joe F.

Hi,

a cname is an alias for an other domain.
That means it points directly to your on-rev domain.
e.g. shop.yourdomain.com would point directly  to yourname.on-rev.com
The same pages would be shown.

With an a-record you can use this subdomain as a real domain on the on-rev
system.
You could have different folders for shop.yourdomain.com and
yourname.on-rev.com
So it would be possible to show different content for each domain.


OK yes - but why not just set up say:

  - http://subdomain.david.on-rev.com/

And then point the C name record as:

  - subdomain.mydomain.com  =>  subdomain.david.on-rev.com ?

I'd still have different folders on on-rev - but are you saying that I'd
have different root folders and that
http://subdomain.david.on-rev.com/would then not ALSO point to
subdomain.david.on-rev.com ? Still a bit confused - thanks for you patience!
