    Hello guys, my name is Yan and I am new to this VPS and server config world. I have some sites hosted but always used shared hosting and cpanel to configure things.

    Now I am launching a bigger project that will require some more firepower from the servers so I decided to upgrade to VPS.

    I went to vultr, deployed the standard $5 server and installed the centminmod (09beta01). Had some problems but I managed to solve them by myself using the starter guide. Installed my domain and wp with let's encrypt (option 22) after several attempts, and everything went fine for a week or so.

    Now the problem is, I want to host a second domain but I couldn't find a guide for that so I just ran the option 22 again, and pointed the dns to the server IP through cloudflare. It seemed to work fine for some time and then both sites stopped working. So I uninstalled the second domain following the guides and the main one started working again.

    so I have two questions:


    1. Is there anything else I need to do to install a second domain on the same server?
    2. Maybe I am interpreting this wrong but in the getting started guide under "
    Add DNS Entries For Hostname.Newdomain.Com" after I add the A record for hostname.mydomain.com it wont resolve. So the question is: Do I need to set the A record name to only "mydomain.com" (worked for me) or "hostname.mydomain.com"?

    I realize this might be very stupid questions but I couldn't find the answer on the forum.

    Thanks in advance.
