Hi there! I hope you can excuse my ignorance on this topics... I registered a couple of domain names with discountdomainregistry.com following the recomendation of someone in the Experienced Users List... Well either they can't point my domain name to my IP or I just can't find where to do it... They offer www redirectio through domainredirect.com But I can't seem to make it work with virtual domains in e-smith... No matter what I do, the best I get is to have my new domain name point to my main website, and not to the specifyied ibay... I decided then, and since you can't get a refund with discountdomainregistry.com (so I could register with a service that has they're own dnss) to make my e-smith machine a DNS... I read the Contributed HOWTO by alen (very clear instructions! :) and found out that you need 2 DNS (if someone could tell me why I will appreciate it) So I went ahead and followed the instructions... I did the exact same thing in 2 of my servers (and I mean exact, all the host files and everything else looks exactly the same) Is this what I was supposed to do? As a consecuence that I can see now, both of my e-smith servers don't work as DNS for my internal network.... Better said, the machines that were using my e-smith servers as gateways, can't resolve names anymore... But the servers have internet access and can resolve the names entered in telnet and lynx.... Was this supposed to happen??? If so, can it be changed so the work again as name resolvers and are also public DNS??? How can I make sure what I did worked, and my servers are now public DNSs??? When I enter the names of my server names with the registrar company, what name shold I use? (my domain name that works fine for one of my servers is www.rwsoft-online.com (registered with register.com), and the other server doesn't have a name, just a fixed IP) All the help to fix my problems (the redirection to ibays, the DNSs and all that) will be greatly appreciated!
