This is a bluehost question posted by velanzia on 01 September 2008

im a new member and this is an awesome forum for great information. also this is going to be my first thread. i searched and got some relative information but not the information i exactly need. ok, this is my question :

im trying to setup a webserver running in my local machine (laptop) so i can setup few subdomains for my freelance projects and provide those to my clients. in that way i dont have to upload files each and every time to my bluehost account. another advantage is i can still use the same root folder as my svn repo for that specif folder. thought this step would be easy time saver for me.

this is what i did :

1. created velanzia.dynalias.org (with wildcards enabled) which resolves the public ip (so when i access it via http, i get router setup page)
2. changed the ddns settings on my router with dyndns credentials
3. then forwarded port 80 from router to my local macine’s ip which was 103. at that time (now when i access above dynalias, it hits my local web server .. yay!)
4. registered mydomain.net with bluehost and asked them to change the cname to aboive dynalias, but still the name servers are the same bluehost default ones (now when i access my new domain, it hits my local websever)

so as a summary, i pointed a domain.com to my local machine’s web server. now i can see files as long as my machine is on.

*****

however i setup a vhost on my apache instance with a server name client1.domain.com, but i can’t access - server cannot be found. i guess theres something missing, does anyone know what this is? how can i actually create a subdomain like client1.domain.com and point it to my local machine? do i have to ask bluehost to create an A record or something?

*****

i tried creating subdomain using cpanel, it wont work because it points to bluehost server.

*****
my configuration: win xp, laptop, wireless connection, apache 2x
