Ok, there's about an 80+% chance I'm just a walking pile of retard, but I cannot figure out how to get my subdomain redirected to a different IP with a port. Here's the details: I purchased 'domain.com' from Google, and they have my Zone file: A @ 111.222.333.444 3600 CNAME ftp domain.com 3600 CNAME www domain.com 3600I'm using 000webhost.com for my webhosting, cuz free. I edited my .htaccess file, initially, just to test my Index.html (which isn't going to be the primary, just wanted to test): RewriteBase / DirectoryIndex www/website/index.html That worked, no problem. At that point, I got cocky. I have a browser-based application I use, and can access remotely (at 22.33.44.55:1234), so I thought "sure...it deserves to have a handy-dandy vanity name, too!". So I created the subdomain at 000webhost.com: 'sub.domain.com' Then, I kinda just flailed around a bit, effectively accomplishing nothing more than a headache: Attempts 1 & 2: Created an A record for 'sub' to 111.222.333.444 Created sub\Index.html: <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=22.33.44.55:1234"> -ALSO TRIED- <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=1234.22.33.44.55"> </head> <body></body> </html> Edited the .htaccess file to redirect sub.domain.com to sub\Index.html: RewriteBase / DirectoryIndex www/website/Index.html RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^sub\.domain\.com$ [NC] RewriteRule DirectoryIndex sub/Index.html Result: This ultimately redirected sub.domain.com to 22.33.44.55, but without port 1234 (if I typed sub.domain.com:1234, that worked - but the main point of this is to get rid of typing the port) Attempt 3: From Google Domains - created Subdomain Forwarding (301) to 22.33.44.55:1234 Result: Well, according to whatsmydns.net, sub.domain.com was resolving to 3-4 different Google IP's, but going to sub.domain.com in my browser didn't take me where I wanted to go. Attempt 4: Deleted Subdomain Forwarding, and re-added A record for 'sub' to 111.222.333.444 Edited the .htaccess file to redirect sub.domain.com to sub\Index.html: RewriteBase / DirectoryIndex www/website/Index.html RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^sub\.domain\.com$ [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*) "http\:\/\/22\.33\.44\.55\:1234\/$1" [R=301,L] Result: sub.domain.com lands me on a 000webhost.com error/ad page (sub.domain.com:1234 just returns the same 'Can't Reach this Page' browser error) Ok, so I realize that was a lot of stuff to read-through (especially if you already know exactly where I missed my left turn at Albuquerque), but I appreciate any reading/analysis/solution that may come from this posting (which, I should also mention - I know I clicked the box above about this being the BEST place for this thread, but...if there's one thing we've probably all learned by this point in this thread, it's that I don't know enough to know whether or not this the best place...or even a good place...for this thread. I'm hoping, so as to not SPAM the wrong forum, and cause extra grief on the mods, but hope's about all I have left at this point) Thanks in advance
Hi, The following should work (I added in http:// spaces because the post is trying to access the IP) <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url= http : / / 22.33.44.55:1234">
