ehosting wont make cname changes

ashagplz · 24-03-04

Having taken up virtual hosting at ehosting.co.uk on a recommenation in this forum you should be aware they will no longer make cname changes on anything under a reseller account. personally i thinks thats outrageous Even my isp would do that on my free space.

eHosting hosting is good, I dont use them for domains though

If you keep your domains on 123 reg you cna make all the changes DNS wise, change IPS tags WHOis stuff all from there + I think domains are usually cheaper through domain companies rather than hosting companies, most of the time.

you can cname from there even though the domain itself is pointed eslewhere?

maybe.... im not technical! whats a host?

all I know is in 123 reg if you lcick to modify a domain it enters all the forwarding DNS settings and all that and theres a CNAME option, and you cna change things...

sorry cant help much but if you dont have a 123 reg account there free - www.123-reg.co.uk - Matts Aff Link

I'm having a nightmare with eHosting.

I have a resellers account for 25 domains with them and they have just taken one of my sites offline because they reckon that having 3000 page views a day is to much for their server to handle - and have closed it down completely!

I have only 15 of the 25 accounts I am suppossed to have and they still reckon I'm pushing the server into the ground!

3000 page views a day is hardly what I would call - a massive amount of traffic is it!

I'm looking for a new host now, absolutely sick of them and their attitude towards their customers. I would have taken out another resellers account with them as they are offering double bandwidth and space to the public at the moment - but this offer is not available for current customers only new ones! Now that loyalty - NOT!

at least you seem to have answer. I havent hd any indication of why this morning after all my other problems the site was down. I suspect its because of the reaons you have mentioned. Like you im not sure how they allocated you a bandwidth then tell you you cant use it. And to pull you with no warning? Incredible. But asi look around i dont see anywhere that people are that happy with a reasonable size site. Looks like im gonna have to go for the dedicated server option.
