Hey all. Just managed to get a DNS server working correctly with my Internet domain. Now I thought that was the hard part! Can someone tell me how (or where to look) to set up a website that refers to this domain. I.e. if a user looks at www.mydomain.com how does the DNS server know to go too server1.mydomain.com to look for the index.html?
Probably a bit complex I can imagine, but thanks for your help in advance.
