Bug Description

We don't understand it, but the Cpanel interface that allowed us to create subdomain redirects for all of the other chapters failed with Santa Cruz. http://santacruz.freeculture.org still says "Server not found" weeks after we tried to add the subdomain redirect, so I don't think it's DNS. I suspect this might fix itself once we move to another web host, but we can't take any chances... someone wanna try fixing it?

The URL it should redirect to is http://metavid.cse.ucsc.edu/freeculture/wiki/

  paulproteus@eridani:~$ host santacruz.freeculture.org
  Host santacruz.freeculture.org not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

It's DNS. In fact, if you manually connect to the freeculture.org web
server, it works:

  paulproteus@eridani:~$ telnet freeculture.org 80
  Trying 70.87.109.44...
  Connected to freeculture.org.
