In reply to: Multisite with domain mapping and external subdomain – 404 errorI was able to figure out a work-around to get things working. It was mainly a DNS issue and me not understanding everything clearly…
Here’s what I did to make it work:
I added an external domain to my account using these directions that I found in the 1&1 support FAQs – How do I add an external domain that uses my own name servers (DNS)? (Pretty sure that missing this step originally was the root of all of the problems).
Once that was done, I added a subdomain for that external domain in the 1&1 account.
Once that was all set up, the external subdomain knew where to go and what to do, and all appears to be working as it should.
Thanks for the help and advice Ipstenu. Much appreciated.

In reply to: Multisite with domain mapping and external subdomain – 404 errorI created a new external subdomain (tester.idahoadagencies.com) and added a CNAME record to point to smgclientblogs.com.
I pinged the subdomain, and it returns the correct IP address – the same one as smgclientblogs.com. I have not mapped the subdomain in WP, and when I try to go to the subdomain URL I get the same 404 error message as above.

In reply to: Multisite with domain mapping and external subdomain – 404 errorI didn’t.
But I can try it with a different subdomain, if that might help narrow down where the problem is. I’ll create one, add the CNAME record, but won’t map it in WP yet.
