we have domains like www.test.com in that we have created the subdomain like www.image.test.com through cpanel in same server. Now we would like to work the www.image.test.com on different server. Can you please help me to setup this. Last edited by rvbraj; 05-29-2008 at 09:19 AM. Reason: spelling

Hi, First create a new domain in the second server from WHM -> Account Function -> Create a new account (hope it is also a cpanel server). Now change the A record of the image.test.com in the first server to IP assigned in the second server. You can change the A record from WHM -> DNS Function -> Edit DNS Zone -> Select test.com -> Edit. Change the IP of image.test.com to the IP assigned in the second server and save. I hope it helps.

Also - in the second server change the MX record to point to first server.

Creating the new domain in the second server is image.test.com right.

Yes, you are correct. >>>>Also - in the second server change the MX record to point to first server.<<<< Regarding MX if you need first server to store all emails to image.test.com dont make any changes to MX setting. If you need second server to store the mails for image.test.com edit MX (dns zone) in the FIRST server as follows. mail1 IN A second_server_IP image.test.com IN MX 10 mail1.test.com
