Title: WayOT: Need DNS assistance

That’s what I thought. There has to be something else done on the server side to make this work.   Troy D. Hilton Serveon, Inc.

Hilton Sent: Monday, January 23, 2006 9:27 AM To: Imail_Forum@list.ipswitch.com Subject: [IMail Forum] WayOT: Need DNS assistance   Hello All, I’ve got a client that has websites setup with Verizon with a “mysite.verizon.net/folder/name” and he wants to have a regular domain name to point to this. Granted, I’m not DNS expert but I can’t see how I can setup a DNS name to point to this Verizon site? DNS will resolve the IP address fine but how to handle the “/folder/site” address is what I can’t figure out. I know this can simply be set in IIS to point to that home page, but I don’t know about Verizon. How can I make this work? Troy D. Hilton Serveon, Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 302-529-8640
