Which server is your site on?

A subdomain is a way to divide your site into sections with short and easy to remember names. Other use of subdomains might be to let somebody else use your account, since subdomains can produce their own level of security, access, and stats.  The way they are implemented depends on your control software (Plesk and Cpanel handle subdomains in different ways) so refer to the documentation of the control panel software or provide more info here.

Sounds like you are on Plesk Linux server.  They may just not be enabled.  To enable, go into plesk under the domain and click on SETUP.  Then under the SERVICES section ensure "Custom Error Documents" is checked.  If still no luck, open a support ticket and reference this thread

Yes, you can use meta refresh.  As for location, it depends.  Which server are you on?

I have not used Vista yet.  I really do not see any reason to as og yet.  If I did, I would have to get all new hardware.  That is a lot of cost for seemingly little benifit.

The OS's I currently use are Windlws XP and Simply Mepis Linux 6.5 and am pretty satisfied with those two.  If you want to learn more about Linux, check out our partner board Linux Boards.  There is a lot of info there and friendly members.

Yes, security is a huge issue with Mambo and other CMS systems.  SSL is basically https:// protocol and almost all HostNed accounts support that, although IMO operating Mambo on https is not necessary.  The big security risks come from a variety of other things.  Make sure you have all security patches installed and turn off register_globals using an .htaccess file.  CHeck with the Mambo support site for further security precautions.

If you are on Linux server with Cpanel, check under the "Raw Access Logs" section.

Well, I do not know which server you are on, but if Linux you can try

/bin/gawk

I use Filezilla FTP program to change dir permissions.  It supports CHMOD.

Yes, there is no charge to open support tickets

If you have just recently gotten a domain name or recently changed the nameservers, it may take 1 to 3 days for the name to link up to the server.  In the meantime, use your server IP address to connect to the FTP.  IF you still cannot connect, open a support ticket with all the details.

PHPBB is allright but be sure to keep up with the updates and patches for security reasons.

If you have been thinking of upgrading your Linux Reseller account (or purchasing a new one), this will be great news for you.  HostNed has lowered the pricing of the SDL-R 5000 and Grande plans by $10 - $20 a month!  For more information on these plans see here http://www.hostned.com/purchase_sdl-r_hosting.htm

I think Google Sitemaps thing is useful for if you are really picky about how/when Google indexes your pages, but for most sites, the natural/automatic process Google employs is sufficient.
