How can I add domain

No, a DOMAIN POINTER will only mask the real domain with its name, BUT after adding a DOMAIN POINTER you are free to use .htaccess and forward the pointer to the real domain:

Code: 
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain2\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ [url]http://www.domain1.com/[/url]$1 [R=301,L]

Hello,

The domain pointer should redirect all connections from domain2.com to domain1.com. This is done in the http.conf file and you shouldn't need to worry about it. Only if you add a new full domain "domain2.com" would you need to use the .htaccess files. The domain pointer alone should suite your needs.

(There is no document root / public_html for the domain pointer, so there wouldn't be any place to put an .htaccess file.)

OK I pointed the domain domain2.com to the domain1.com but now 3 days and I can not access the domain2 any idea ??
 
Hello,

www.dnsreport.com

make sure it's setup correctly, uses the correct nameservers, and is pointing to the server. If you are willing, just paste the domain here, and you'd be surprized what we can figure out remotely by just knowing the name of the domain :)

Hello,

Dnsreport does a realtime lookup from the nameserver. If you are using you're ISP's nameservers, and you were trying it out before it was setup, they'll have a "stale" version of the dns record. You might have to wait a bit for your ISPs nameservers to be updated. Does domain2.com by itself work? would be the same issue.

Hello,

You'll have to provide more information, either post the real domain name to the forum so we can make sure the dns is working, or just email all your account info (ip, rootpass, domain name, admin da login/pass) to [email protected]
