<DIV>I appreciate the prompt reply. I do have DNS entries with
Network Solutions for both <A
href="http://www.mydomainname.org">www.mydomainname.org</A> and mydomainname.org
for outside resolution and I also have them entered on my Win2k3 inside DNS
servers for inside resolution. Hit the FQDN of <A
href="http://www.mydomainname.org">www.mydomainname.org</A> and I hit the
proper site so Apache must be resolving properly at that point but why not
for mydomainname.org?<BR> <BR>> From: mstauber@blueonyx.it<BR>> To:

the same IP, then Apache <BR>> needs to resolve the DNS in order to be able
to redirect your visit to the <BR>> desired page.<BR>> <BR>> If it
cannot resolve the domain name, then it will simply point the visit to <BR>>
the primary site instead.<BR>> <BR>> Entering the domain name into your
Windows host file will not help, as Apache <BR>> on your server still needs
to be able to resove the DNS and if the domain you <BR>> want to browse to
has no correct DNS entries, then this won't work.<BR>> <BR>> Work around:
<BR>> <BR>> 1.) Under "System Settings" / "TCP/IP" enter the IP address of
your server as <BR>> DNS server.<BR>> <BR>> 2.) Activat the DNS server
on your BlueOnyx.<BR>> <BR>> 3.) Create DNS records for your Domain based
on this guide<BR>> <BR>>
http://www.solarspeed.net/otrs/public.pl?Action=PublicFAQ&CategoryID=3&ItemID=16<BR>>
<BR>> 4.) Configure your Windows network so that it uses the BlueOnyx DNS
server for <BR>> all DNS queries.<BR>> <BR>> Then it should work until
you get official DNS entries somewhere upsteam.<BR>> <BR>> -- <BR>>
