I am using the primary ibay for my website, I've set www.dokx.ath.cx to the ip address to my server in hostnames and addressess, domain dns server is set to resolve locally,

Need more information.
How are you connected to the internet? DSL or cable modem?
Is there a router between you and your internet device?
Are you using server or server/gateway configuration?
Do you have a static or dynamic IP?

Have you set www.dokx.ath.cx to your IP with your registrar?

I just checked your domain name at www.dnsstuff.com. and it gives me an IP of 208.38.67.251. If I try to brows to that IP, I see a folder called jinzora2. Is that what you have there? If so, you have no index.html file there, and will need one to redirect to the jinzora2 folder.

Is it the same as I found?
There is normally no need to change the host or dns settings setting on your server.

I would also suggest upgrading to SME 7.0 final when you get this worked out.

If i drop the www and try just dokx.ath.cx, It takes me to the same location as using the ip.

You will need to create a small html file that will get you to the jinzora2 folder. Do a little searching on the web for a redriction script.

Did you enable wldcards for your domain name at dyndns? If you do, that may allow you to use the www.

Try this
Quote
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
  <head>
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=jinzora2/" />
    <title></title>
  </head>
</html>


use this code to create a file called index.html

It should take care of the redirection.

good luck

Bob

ps. this file has to go in the html folder

It works fine. The only thing that does not work at this time is the domaain with the www in front of it.
