moving main domain - problems?

[Binky]

I think this should work but need to be sure.

One of my accounts "maindomain.com" has two IRMs. The "main domain" client has decided to move their site to the web space offered by their isp - saving the hosting costs. They've changed the nameservers at Dotster to point to nameresolve.com. (They're using Dotster's URL forwarding service.) If I do nothing at my end will the 2 IRMs be okay?

If the maindomain hosting package was assigned a dedicated IP address, then you can probably get by OK on this type of a set up. However, if the maindomain hosting package is on a shared IP address (which would be for older accounts), then you will not be able to access the CNC for that hosting package.

You would want to most likely have a domain name change done, in that case, in order to have full access to all the services in the hosting package.

Even if you have a dedicated IP address, some functions within the CNC may not work properly if the main domain is not pointing to the FutureQuest network. As one example: mailing lists will not work properly if the main domain is not pointing to the FutureQuest network.

Options for changing the domain name on a full hosting package are described here:
