Was wondering if someone can let me know if this is possible. I would like to be able to have the primary site from being presented to the internet. I do need it running though so any ibays that are not associated to a virtual domain get served.
IE: www.primarydomain.com shows "page cannot be displayed"
yet www.primarydomain.com/ibay1 shows the content of the that ibay.
If I remove the default index.htm from the primary site I get the directory structure of the wwwroot. I don't want this either.
Reason for doing, everytime I call my cable company for support they go to http://myipaddress and it used to show my primary domain (which I've sinced moved to an ibay) and then they start complaining about the server and I just don't want that hassle from them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would try changing port from standard (80) to nonstandard (81?) and then use external DNS service (like zoneedit.com) to redirect http://www.yourrealdomain.com to http://www.yourdynamicIP.com:82/ibay

Unfortunatly there are 10 domains that are already being handled by another dns provider, changing them at this time is not an option. What about .htaccess? Even if it returned a "You are not authorized to view this page" would be fine, as long as it wouldn't effect the ibays.

I tried renaming my primary/html folder to primary/htmlok, and when I access the main site at http://www.mydomain.com I get
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.
I can still access http://www.mydomain.com/ibayname OK though.
I'm using v5.1.2 and do not have any virtual domains setup, so I don't know if this wil work for you.

Hello guys,
I have made in the past something like that whit a lettele php script
Just place it in de ibay/html directorie en fill in to what page the must go
You make a file whit the name index.php
and place the fllow information in it
header('location: http://www.samaritanspurse.org/intl.asp?country=Netherlands');
?>
Save and close it
You can fill in every right http:// path you want are make in your primary/html directorie a page whith every link the user may make (to the deferent IBAYS
Goodluck

Q!uick, simple & painless. Thanks Ray. Renamed it and it doesn't seem to have any adverse effects on the rest of the sites, just the primary, which is exactly what I needed. Thanks Again.
