for the name you wish to use. MAKE SURE the subdomain name
you give it doesn't have a folder already named that name.
If it does the sub will not work. Example... I want to
create the subdomain test.jdwis.com so my sub name is
going to be test. If I already have a folder in my ftp
named test I need to delete it or rename it to something
different before I create the subdomain with the test name
from cpanel.

A.
www.domain.com is a domain name. A subdomain is anything
that replaces the www in a domain name.forum.aol.com
is a subdomain. www.forum.aol.com is not a subdomain.
Addon
Domains
Q. What is an addon domain?
A. An addon
domain is a fully functional domain that will work out of
a folder in your main sites ftp.
Q.
READ THIS BEFORE SETTING UP AN
ADDON DOMAIN!
You cannot
create an addon domain if your dns hasn't proprograted to
the server already. So after you change the sites dns you
are trying to add you will need to wait 24-48 hours before
attempting to create your addon domain.
A. There
are three fields cpanel asks for when creating an addon
domain.
1.
"New Domain Name:" You will put in the
newdomain.com do not put www in the name!
2.
"Username/directory/subdomain Name:"
This will be the folder cpanel creates in your main
accounts ftp. MAKE SURE that the name you give it doesn't
already have a folder. Example... If you want to give it
the username chris. You cannot have a folder in your
account named chris already. If you do and still try
creating the username for the addon domain to be chris you
will mess a lot of things up!!!
3. "Password:"
fill in any password you want here.
Q. Help I added an addon domain
why did it say subdomain added?!!?
A. It
creates it as a subdomain by creating the folder within
your main sites ftp. Please ignore this! It is a fully
functional domain name. It is only called a subdomain when
in fact it is an addon domain.
