Hey! ;D

Basically, my friend owns a domain Ac-Mc.Org and I want to create a ip for my friends minecraft server (play.Ac-Mc.Org) however, I can't create the a records etc in godaddy since I have it setup for my website (ac-mc.org) and therefore need to create the minecraft records in my cpanel

Anychance any of you know how to do this? In return, I'll give you a vouch!

If your website and the server IP is all on the same IP (only way you can do is if the website and the server is hosted on a VPS/dedi), then it is possible. If not, and your friend is on a MC Host (like MCProHosting) then you can only have the website show up, or the MC server show up.

This is 100% incorrect.

I recommend using CloudFlare for managing domain management.

You can create an A record of play pointing to your server IP (assuming the port is :25565).
If the port is not an A record, its still possible to do using SRV records.

You could even have test123.com as both the website domain and server IP without needing a VPS / Dedi.

I've seen other servers that have a website like test123.com and then a ip like play.test123.com and they weren't on a dedi/vps?
You don't need a dedi or vps for this.. In your SRV records, you add the name under the name field in GoDaddy. Such as play in the name field. If you do not wish for a name then you put @ to use your original domain such as the example provided, test123.com.

If the website is on an IP, lest just say 98.236.104.249 (not a real IP) and a Minecraft server IP, 86.111.73.58:25678 (once again, not a real IP). Most Minecraft host don't give you a 25565 unless you pay more.

With all this info, you can't point a domain at 2 different IP address.

When you have 2 or more A records, it will just rotate. Google does this. So one server isn't handeling all the requests. So for a Minecraft server, you don't want that. You can see more HERE.

I have tried to do this before. I talked with GoDaddy on the phone and asked them if I can do this. They said no you can't.

Also on spigot, HERE, that to get a Minecraft sever and a website on the same domain, you need to host it on the same box.[DOUBLEPOST=1501966761][/DOUBLEPOST]

Yes you have seen it before, like o hypixel, they are hosting there website and there Minecraft server on the same dedicated server.

You are completely incorrect.

As I said above... you don't need a 25565 port. You can point the domain to the website with an A record. You can point the domain to the server with a combination of an A record and SRV record.

You think Hypixel host their whole server and website on the same dedicated server? Your dumb. They have many dedicated servers. The website is not hosted on the same machine as a server.

I said above too, if you have too A records, a website/server will just pick one of them. Why are there also so many places saying that you can't do that?[DOUBLEPOST=1501976641][/DOUBLEPOST]

I don't need to argue with you. What ever. If you can do it. Great. If you can't. Whatever.

Because they don't know how to do it. They go around saying it's not possible. People like you read it and continue spreading it without any actual knowledge. Endless cycle of idiots.

Domain: test.com
Server IP: [server_ip]:[server_port]
Web Host IP: [web_ip]


A Record mc.test.com -> [server_ip]
A Record test.com -> [web_ip]

SRV Record:
Service name - _minecraft
Protocol - TCP
Name - test.com
Port - [server_port]
Target - mc.test.com

Remove play. from the first box in the SRV record... (as shown above "Name - test.com")
Don't run the play A record through cloudflare...
Instead of using an A record for www, create a cname record of www pointing to @
