I know this question seems pretty straight-forward, but I’m having a hard time pulling up any answers on Google / Other Forums.

A client has a few domains parked on Network Solutions – not attached to any hosting account. I’m planning to point one of the recently purchased domains to a sub-directory of our main site (hosted elsewhere) – as part of a special promotion that’s running.

However, Network Solutions now charges for Web Forwarding. In hopes of avoiding an additional charge I thought I’d use the DNS settings to point the IP to the site – but that just takes the user to the main website’s home-page — and not the specific sub-directory I need it to.

Since the domains are just parked – and not associated with a hosting account, I don’t have access to a .htaccess file to deal with 301 forwarding or anything there.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

    Just point the DNS to your server and set up vhosts for each of the new domains. Then, drop in a one-line JS or PHP index file (or mod_rewrite rule) to redirect to the desired page on your main site.
