Topic: IBAYs and Virtual Domains

[Garret Acott]

I'm new to this stuff so take it easy on me. I've got e-smith 4.0 up and running fine. Talks to the network, gets me to the internet all that good stuff. The problem is that I can't seems to get to my ibays of virtual domains from the internet. Works great from the network though.
Example... my machine is www.troubleshoot.yi.org, with a virtual domain of "downandout.yi.org" supported by its own ibay. Both domains are published with the same IP (isn't that the idea of a virtual domain?).
I reach the ibay over the network by www.troubleshoot.yi.org/downandout. It works fine. I get nothing over the internet. Same happens with the virtual domain, reaches fine over the network and not at all over the internet.
Trying to see what I've done wrong and am blind to it.

Thanks

If you set up a DNS entry for www.downandout.yi.org which points to your server's IP address, then the ibay will show up at
that address. This is (currently) hard coded into the e-smith configuration system, but I have forwarded your message to the e-smith developers mailing list as I'm not sure that it is the correct thing to be doing.
