Main Domain problem.

[Surf3rDud3]

Hello.

My Sentora installation is setup to point to cp.domain.tld but if I go to just domain.tld it loads the sentora panel as well. I want to be able to still create a website via domain.tld and have cp.domain.tld for the panel only.

I don't know if my Registers DNS Records are incorrect but there must be a way to do this.


       

I also use my own nameservers for the rest of my domains.

Have you setup the DNS records inside Sentora too?

[Surf3rDud3]

I created them yes do i need to copy what i have via Namecheap over to the Sentora DNS too?

You shouldn't need to if you are going to use namecheap's DNS, but I always do both for my main domain that everything is on. So, basically my GoDaddy and Sentora DNS are the same for the domain I use as my main hosting domain. All other domains use my name servers and Sentora's DNS.

Right I have my maindomain.tld using the records i posted above in the attachments. Which allows me to use ns1.maindomain.tld and ns2.maindomain.tld nameservers for my other domains. I just want to make sure that the Namecheap Records are correct since it seems that maindomain.tld directs to my Sentora Panel which I only want cp.maindomain.tld to use not maindomain.tld. 

I have another thread open in the Emails section which i think has something to do with my problem since its reading my mail server as cp.maindomain.tld instead of mail.maindomain.tld. But if thats not the case then just ignore this part lol.

Just to make sure, you did add mydomain.tld inside the panel (Domain Manager) and created the default DNS for it (DNS Manager).

If so, double check your bind zone for mydomain.tld to make sure it is correct.
/etc/sentora/configs/bind/zones/mydomain.tld.txt

Mine looks like this: (Yeah, a lot of sub domains, I know)

Code:

So youre using cnames for subdomains? I thought CNAME overwrote A Records?

Edit: when i use CNAMES it makes cp.domain.tld and domain.tld are 403 Forbidden.

[TGates]

Ok, in Sentora DNS manager and my GoDaddy (All records match):

these are my A records:
*, @, mail, ns1, ns2, ns3 IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

CNAME Records:
cp, sen-packs, zppy-repo, mirrors, etc. IN CNAME @

[Surf3rDud3]

I get a 403 Forbidden when adding the CNAME for cp.
