OK Ray I got a question,
I did remove the
www.langs.net.au entry in the hostnames and address but then my forwarder didnt work, it was trying to forward it to
www.langs.net.au which it is, so I am not too sure about the forwarding as our "proper" web site is actually being hosted at a host (CIA), _not_ an ISP (
www.ozemail.com.au/~blah).
So I tryed looking up the ip that I should be forwarding to but all I get is this stupid picture, not my companies web site?!?!?!?!!? Check it out:
[root@esmith root]# dig @ozemail.com.au langs.net.au
; <<>> DiG 9.1.3 <<>> @ozemail.com.au langs.net.au

So try opening
http://203.63.219.194/ in your web browser, hmmmmmm?!?!? So how do I set the forwarder to point to my companies real page?
And do I need to set a forwarder for each and every file, eg if someone tryes to go to
www.langs.net.au/fubar will i need to put a forwarder on the sme box in the /primary/html/fubar dir so that they dont get a file not found error?
This of course will only apply to poeple internally trying to access out own website, thats why I thought that the entry in the hostnames is much easier, then if someone internally try's to open
http://www.langs.net.au/* it will be loaded from our hosts server not the SME.
Right???
Thanks for your help!
