Default accessing my domain


Have I Boobed
The story is I have setup up a win2000 AD server - so far so good, with some
assistance from you guys here everything functions AOK.
The problem is -
We have a domain name eg mycompany.com hosted externally, however I
wrongly or rightly named the server with the same name ie mycompany.com now
internal network users cannot access www.mycompany.com.

Do I need to add a DNS entry for www.mycompany.com pointing to the external
IP address,
If so where do I add this entry is it a new host?

Thanx in anticipation

Tony L

Default Re: accessing my domain

You need to add a new Host (A) record of www in the company.com zone that
points to the external IP address. That should fix it.
