I have a static IP, and I've pointed my domain registrar to that IP. The problem is that when I go to my website it shows only my app server's iis.

I have an app server running 2003 as my gateway, and the web server that has the site I need to point to is behind that. I tried adding the website as a forward lookup zone on my app server, and pointing the (A) record to my web server's internal IP (192.168...), but the site still just points to my app server. I don't know how to relay the site to the other server????

On Default Website Properties. Select A share located on another computer. Then Type in the UNC path to where that file is located
Like this.
\\server1\inetpub\wwwroot\Mainsite

This would work, but then the app server would be supporting the load for all the web transactions would it not. I want to make sure the load is on the web server not the app server.
