    Is this plug-in what i need to achieve this?

    No. DNS stands for Domain Name Server and web browsers use DNS to look up domain names (not URLs). You cannot have the root / of a site at one location/IP Address and a folder at a different IP.

    Thanks Ron, I appreciate the response.

    gdegarnham,

    you could setup a reverse proxy in apache or nginx to do load content from your blog into a “subfolder” of your main site.

    ie. something like that:

    a2enmod proxy_http proxy_html

    in the virtualhost config of mysite.com:

    ProxyPreserveHost On
    ProxyPass /blog https://blog.mysite.com:80/
    ProxyPassReverse /blog https://blog.mysite.com:80/
