please give me this informations link

Thanks in advance

It's not possible, however, it is:

http://forum.bdpplz.com
http://forum.bdetc.com
http://forum.bdstudentscafe.com

Install the vBulletin software in one of these addresses (create a subdomain of main domain), then point the other 2 for it. It's easy if you cPanel or any other control panel software. If you need to do it manually, add this DNS entry in the master zone of the 2 "mirrors" domains.

Supposing you installed the forum in http://forum.bdpplz.com, add the entry below to both bdetc.com and bdstudentscafe.com dns master zones:

forum IN CNAME forum.bdpplz.com.

Note1: you don't need to use forum.domain.com, type simply "forum" as above.
Note2: don't forget the ending dot after the real forum domain (in red).

More info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNAME_record

It's fully allowed by vB license, as the content will be identical, just accessed through different domains. Also, the URL will not change when you access forum.mirrordomain.com (e.g.: you continue seeing forum.mirrordomain.com/usercp.php).

Tip: try to NOT include the domain name in the cookie config (leave it blank), to allow domain-cross sessions (a user who logins in forum.bdpplz.com will be automatically logged when accessing forum.bdetc.com). You may need to configure a cookie prefix in vBulletin's config.php to avoid people being unlogged after navigating in other vBulletin forums with the same config (the prefix don't need to identificate a specific domain or all the set, just chose something unique, e.g.: "bdpplz_").

I hope this info is helpful.

-- last note:

You will need to add in your vBulletin Admin CP > vBulletin Options > General Config, in the "allowed domains" sections:

.domain2.com
.domain3.com

Until you do this, users will not be able to post thread/replies from the 2 alternative domains (maybe can't even register).
