could someone tell me if there is a way to mirror a site.

in other words

I have site abc.com.
it is blocked by my isp.
I also have site 123.com which is not blocked. ( only the name abc.com is being blocked )
I would like to have site 123.com mirror site abc.com without them both going to the same URL.

Pointing site 123.com to abc.com will not work as it just gets blocked at abc.com.
I was able to do this on my old server but don't know how it was done.

thank you ATG
 
If both sites are on the same user and your have permissons to modify both you could create a symlink to one of the domains public_html direcotories. That way they will both show the same thing without you having to upload the files twice over.
 
Thank you ,
Is this something that can be done in direct admin ? Or would someone at the server need to do it?
not really sure what a symlink is, could you explain a bit more.

thank you atg
 
This can't be done throught the file managager as far as I know. You would need to do it through ssh.

Symlink is a simple links that points to a different directory or program. Basically its the same thing as Windows shortcut links, their not the real directory but you can access them through that link.
