At previous post I have covered steps for domain setting. Make sure the domain already pointed to drupal hosting account. In this case I use Fastdomain.  In this post I’ll try to explain the steps taken in hosting side.

Addon Domain Setting

Login to your cpanel and click on”Addon Domains

Assign Domain

There is 4 steps in FastDomain Assign Domain :

1. Enter Domain.

Since batikweb.com domain is new in the system I pick second option.

Choose “Use a domain that is not already associated with your account” and enter batikweb.com

Right click anywhere to make their system automatically find out where the domain DNS.

2. Verify Ownership

FastDomain system will automatically process and display the result. As you see the ownership verified successfully to

NS1.FASTDOMAIN.COM and NS2.FASTDOMAIN.COM

3. Addon Domain

As shown in the picture.

An Addon Domain is a domain name that points to a different subdirectory on your account. This gives you the ability to make  it look like an entirely different website.

Click radio button near “Addon Domain“.

4. Choose Addon Directory and Sub-domain.

Choose “Create a new directory” radio button followed by click button “Add Domain”.
