: Domain on NameCheap, Hosting on GoDaddy: Redirect Loop I tried searching, but since I'm pretty new to networking I may not have used to right keywords, so I apologize if I missed the answer.

It's not strictly a DNS setting. You would have to change the settings on your web server.

You will need to have the friendsmusic.com DNS A record point to the IP Address that mydomain.com/friend is hosted at.

Then assuming you are using an Apache web server you can go into the configuration file example: /etc/apache2/apache2.conf and create a mod_rewrite condition. Similar to this. I suppose you might be able to create an .htaccess file instead of directly editing your server configuration file which you may not even have access to depending on your host.

The only solution I can think of here is a server alias.

A server alias points to your domain name on web server level. It can send the user somewhere without the URL changing

But you must note:


the domain should be hosted at your hosting company
you should redirect all links to example.php/. Note the /, otherwise the real URL will be shown.


It's a decent alternative for frames.
