Thanks. I've tried creating a CNAME or HOST in DNS and it doesn't like non local IPs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: Kennedy, Jim [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 01, 2008 1:09 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: I would like to point users in Windows 2003 domain to a public IP via a local DNS name...? If the website will answer to the hostname he uses.that could be trouble. I posted this idea on his other post on the exchange list. Probably better to toss the idea out for discussion here... I would put up my own webpage for this.... myredirector.mydomain.com and have that page redirect them to the public IP address. Let's assume that the public IP is 207.54.159.2 <META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="1; URL=207.54.159.2 "> Should work...I think. Maybe. From: David W.

Add a CNAME to your internal DNS with the Public IP??? ----- Original Message ----- From: lists To: NT System Admin Issues Sent: Tuesday, July 01, 2008 2:03 PM Subject: DNS: I would like to point users in Windows 2003 domain to a public IP via a local DNS name...? Windows 2003 domain. There's a website at a hosting location to which I'd like to point domain users via a locally created DNS name. The website does not have a public domain name but does have a public IP of course. Can this be done? ______________________________________________________ This e-mail and any files transmitted with it are property of Indiana Members Credit Union, are confidential, and are intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom this e-mail is addressed.
