Three possible solutions, in order of preference: Find a different DNS provider, that will allow you to put an MX on a subdomain. Note that this does not necessarily require you to change registrars.

Until SNI is fully supported, you can only have one certificate per IP address. If you can get a certificate that covers both sites (a wildcard or a UC certificate, for example), you can set up SSL Host Headers to allow both sites to be secured.
The best idea we have found so far is to setup two Amazon EC2 micro machine instances with a small bit of nginx configuration. Then, provision two elastic IP addresses to point to those EC2 instances and point 2 A records to those IP addresses. This way, if something goes wrong on the hardware, you … Read more
You should have a look at the URL Rewriting Guide from the apache documentation. The following is untested, but it should to the trick: RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^.]+)\.blah\.domain\.com$ RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://blah.domain.com/%1/$1 [L,R] This only works if the subdomain contains no dots. Otherwise, you’d have to alter the Regexp in RewriteCond to match any character which should … Read more
In order for this to not be restricted by the same origin policy, you will probably need to do this in both the pages: document.domain = “acmssite.com”;
Yes, window.location.hostname will give you subdomains as well. If this isn’t working, or isn’t supported by some other browser, you could quite easily parse for it: // window.location.href == “http://sample.somedomain.com/somedir/somepage.html” var domain = /:\/\/([^\/]+)/.exec(window.location.href)[1];

I found it to work flawless on every Windows system from XP up to Win8, and it’s open source. And yes, it supports wildcards… it even supports regex for … Read more
# abc.example.com server { listen 80; server_name abc.example.com; location / { proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1/abc$request_uri; proxy_set_header Host example.com; } }
You can use some custom middleware to intercept the request and get the subdomain from it. The following code will retrieve the subdomain and redirect to a view by reversing the named url. Put it in a middleware.py file in your app. Make sure you set up the middleware in your settings.py file. Make sure … Read more
