Hello
You can have 2 domains that point at exactly the same directory by making some changes in IIS.
PLEASE DO NOT attempt this unless you are confident that you can fix it if it goes wrong. You should understand NT user administration and know your way around the IIS snap-in.
This would be simple but... The Alias needs to use the same IUR_ account as the Master, so that it has permission to access the Master's disk space. Unfortunately you can't find out the password for the Master account because Plesk generates it and doesn't tell you. I think Plesk should use the same password as the domain account or FTP, but I'm sure they have their reasons.
- Create both domains in Plesk
- Log in to the server with Remote Desktop
*** WARNING: the Master website will stop working during the next 4 or 5 steps. ***
- In the 'Computer Management' change the password for the IUSR_master domain.
- The rest of the steps are all in the IIS snap-in
- Open the Master domain's website
- On the Directory Security tab, click Edit and set the new password
- Go back up to Application Pools, open the Master domain properties and change the password on the Identity Tab.
*** WARNING: the Alias website will stop working during the next steps. ***
- Open the Alias domain's website properties
- On the Home Directory tab change the Local Path to be the same as the master domain's
- On the directory Securtity tab change the IUSR_ account name and password to be the same as the Master's
- Go back up to Application Pools, open the Alias domain properties, Identity Tab. and change the IUSR_ account name and password to be the same as the Master's
Voila.
Cheers,
Julian
