Cant connect using another domain name

Hi. iChat is up and running, we're able to connect to it using user@servername, but when we try to use another domain name it doesnt work (dns is pointed to that server, if i ping it it does give the correct ip), i know the dns is working because if i check the server log it does say i connected to it, but 1 sec. after it disconnects any ideas?

Welcome to Apple Discussions
You must ensure that you list the other domains in the Host Domains section of the Settings tab Server Admin application. Assuming you have done that and you still have problem, it will help us help you if you post the entries you have in the log file and the domains and one of the usernames you are trying to use.

Using a domain name with the mac site

If I use a domain name on Site #2, does that mean that Site #1 will automatically have the same domain name?
I already have a Site #1 up and running. Now I purchased a new domain name that I would like to use only for site# 2. I was worried about going in with any edits to Site #1 just in case it would go to the new domain name instead of where it is right now.
Any light on that subject?

If you have 2 websites in the same domain folder the uppermost site or the site that you most recently published will be linked to your domain name. If you don't want it to be then you need to re-publish with the site that you want to be linked to your domain name is uppermost. You can move the sites around by dropping and dragging.
The easiest thing to do is to separate the sites so that you have site 1 in 1 folder and site 2 in another. Following this, the site that you publish first will be linked to your domain name. If it is not this site that you want then just publish the other site.
How do you have the first site set up? Is it using CNAME or web forwarding? Have you entered your personal domain name into your .Mac account?
If you have one .Mac account and two websites and two personal domain names, then you can use CNAME for one site and web forwarding with or without masking for the other site. You can only enter one domain name into one .Mac account.

Using Multiple Domain Names to Access Our Portal

We operate one domain corp.company.com but all internal intranet web servers get assigned the address inside.ZZZ. The inside.ZZZ is on our IE exclusion list but company.com is not. Adding company.com seems to be a miserable task so we are looking at adding an alias so our users can access the server at the new inside.ZZZ url. We have DNS pointing the URL to the right server and that seems to be working properly.
Something within the application is redirecting the page to gnwhepdev.corp. company .com (our servers domain address) after the initial login. Since *.corp. company .com is not in the exclusion list, it is considered an outside address and rerouted. We are trying to find some way to pass the alias within the application itself so that we dont need *.corp. company .com in the exclusion list and we can point users to the inside.ZZZ url.
Our team researched this issue and found documentation that supported the use of multiple domain names to access a Enterprise Portal. The documentation that we found is below:
How ToConfigure the J2EE Engine Deployment Descriptor (Version 1.00 July 2004)
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d0eb8120-b66c-2910-5795-894f384fc054
Particularly on page 13-15 in the documentation it talks about enabling the portal via multiple domain names (Section 3.7: Using Multiple Domain Names to Access the Portal). Also, the documentation says the following:
You must have sever proxy servers, each with a different domain name. You then activate the filter mechanism and configure it to work with several proxy servers
We have several questions about the possiblities of being able to set this up and whether it would require another server where Web Dispatcher would need to be installed for this configuration to work properly. Can someone please provide some insight into what needs to be configured and answer the question about the Web Dispatcher? Also, if Web Dispatcher is required, what steps need to be done to configure? If Web Dispatcher is not needed, what will we need to do apart from that to set this up for our Enterprise Portal system?

It is but you have to use masking......

Ok so I happened to figure it out while on the phone to apple support. Even though the guy was very nice, I think I knew more than him! He was explaining very basic resolution principles I played about. I had the second option in displays resolution. All I did was unplug the HDMI cable, click on 'best for display' then plugged the HDMI in and my resolution on the normal monitor changed to the normal blue, then went black momentarily and then changed to a strange resolution but another window appeared that said SONY BRAVIA HDMI at the top! Hey presto! Don't know why it didn't do it yesterday - I probably left the HDMI cable in or something! Oh well. Problem solved!

I want to use a domain name and I have alot of questions. please help!!!

If i switch to a domain, will i be able to se all of the iwebs features?
will i have to pay for a domain and .mac subscription?
It says i used up 17mb of 25mb on my idisk, once i hit 25 what happens?

ok well lets say i want to use a domain name such as
www.mywebste.com. if i forward it then all u have ot
do is type in www.mywebsite.com and it will bing u to
web.mac.com/whatever?
Yes.
If i do it this way will i
still be able to use all of the iwebs fatures such as
blog comment, hit counter...?
I think so, but since I don't do this I don't know for sure.
also if i do it this way will i have to pay for the
.mac subscription too?
Yes, if you keep your site physically on .Mac you have to pay for it.
can you send me a website where i can find lots of
effects i can use in my iweb page because the effects
on iweb are very limited.
The best thing for you to do is search this forum using the term for the effect you are interested in.
If you find iWeb too limited and don't find workarounds in this Forum for adding the effects you want, you can consider using another app. Here is one list:

Design a site, use my domain name, and host it via .mac

It sounds simple, and I thought a search through these forums would yield some easy answers, but no luck, so here goes:
I'm an advanced Photoshop and Final Cut Studio user, running an audio/video/image restoration and transfer business, but I'm a total beginner in the iWeb/.Mac area.
About three years ago, I decided it was time for a web site, so I went to a local company; they designed and still host my site, for which I pay them $30.00 per month; it's a simple site with no ecommerce, and six or seven pages. There is a contact form through which potential customers can email me.
I also have a domain name, for which I pay $15.00 per year to the same company.
My site is OK, but it's the same as it was three years ago; any small changes I have asked the company to make (mostly just text additions/changes) they have done at the rate of $75.00 per hour.
What I want to do is cancel my account with them, design a totally new site using iWeb, start a .mac account, and have the site hosted using my domain name, so that the average customer who sees my newspaper ad can navigate to my new site exactly as they can with the current one. (I only have one email account, through my ISP, which I don't want to change.)
I've got lots of questions, but mostly, what else do I have to do to make this switch besides cancelling my account with my current company? (After an overlap period, of course) What happens with my domain name--who will I pay to keep it? And finally, what simple things am I not thinking of?
Many thanks in advance to anyone with enough patience to read through this, and still find time to provide some assistance.

You can design your site in iWeb and upload it to either .Mac or a commercial server.
You would then provide the domain name registrar with your server ID number or, in the case of .Mac, your .Mac URL and instruct them to point your domain name in that direction.
.Mac is neither intended for, nor the best option, for a business site.
For example the company I host with - Host Excellence - allows you a free domain name registration and up to 6 sites with unlimited web mail and more server space than you are likely to need for about the cost of a .Mac account.
Commercial servers are a lot more reliable than .Mac, have wider bandwidth and usually have good tech support.
You only have to look at the number of problems in this forum concerning .Mac to see that tech support is not readily available from Apple.
I'm not putting down .Mac. I use it myself for various purposes and it is good for its intended use of one clicking publishing of personal websites.

Using a domain name email address with BT broadban...

We've just moved over to BT broadband after 17 years with Demon. I have three email addresses - [email protected] and name at mydomainname.co.uk etc - which I have now pointed to my new btinternet.com address, but after three days of chasing my own tail none of my email is arriving in my BT mailbox.
Our domain names are hosted by Freeparking. We don't have mailboxes there. The mail has previously been forwarded to our Demon account successfully - different domain names frowarding to different underlying demon addresses.
Freeparking indicates that it takes about ten minutes to propagate the forwarding change, so after three days i think I can say that I've given it every opportunity. I don't think the problem is with Freeparking's forwarding. I think it's with BT.
Now, the thing is, besides my three addresses which are not forwarding successfully, there's another domain name address (belonging to my husband) which IS forwarding successfully from Freeparking to BT, but this just happens to be the address we gave to BT as a contact email prior to the changeover from Demon.
My husband thinks this all may be something to do with grey-listing and that the reason the three domain names are not being accepted at BT is something to do with the fact that the addresses have not been verified as legitimate. Unfortunately it seems that the only way they can be verified as a legitimate address is by receiving and returning a verification mail from BT. Which is where our circular logic finally disappears up its own tail-feathers. We can't receive and respond because BT is not accepting the forwarded mail and we have no other method of accessing it.
Help, please.
It looks like we are losing all mail currently sent to those addresses - some of which may be significant business mail that we can't afford to lose.
I really don't want to have to change all my various email addresses (one personal, one business and one hobby-related) to the new BT one. I have 2400 names in my address book. Changing addresses would just add to the nightmare.
I feel particularly p155ed off because one of the questions I asked before moving to BT was whether BT accepted domain name addresses forwarded from Freeparking and was told that it wlouldn't be a problem.
Just as amatter of note, I did call the BT help centre and was told that since my main BT address was working (i.e. receiving and sending direct emails) they had neither the obligation nor the training to solve the domain name problem. Well done BT.
Solved!

Hi. Welcome to the forums.
Address verification is not actually needed with respect to forwarding of emails.
Do you have another email address (e.g. hotmail, gmail etc) that you can forward one of the email addresses to ? This can help check it's workiing, despite the other domain working ok.
Forgive me for asking, but can you check that the email you're forwarding to is correctly spelt with numbers, periods etc in the right place - it is easy to make a mistake!
Have you checked the Spam folder in webmail in case all the emails have ended up there ?

Using own domain name , duplication of web address HELP !!

Hi all,
Although this is not a big problem it is quite annoying. I am currently building website within Iweb 09. I have managed to set up my own domain name with no problems at all. The only thing is I get a duplication of my website name on the browser here it is :
*http://www.topviewweddings.co.uk/topviewweddings/Home.html*
I would ideally like to just have *http://www.topviewweddings.co.uk*
Anyone have any ideas on how to do this ??
cheers
T

One way would be to use standard domain name forwarding (not CNAME) and enable masking. That would put http://www.topviewweddings.co.uk in the URL window of ALL your pages. The downside to that is visitors can only bookmark your first page which may or may not be a problem. My tutorial site, http://toadstutorials.info , is set up that way.

Error message when publishing to MobilMe using GoDaddy domain name

Hi all,
I am trying to publish my site from iWeb '09 to MobilMe. I am using a domain name purchased through GoDaddy. When I publish the entire site in iWeb, it seems to publish fine, but when I click to "visit site", I get a page with an error message, "Looking for something on MobileMe?

I have checked my login info, etc. I have no idea why this isn't working. Any thoughts???

That Vist button has been a problem for others also. Why, I don't know. Try using the File ➙ Visit Published Site menu option. That has worked for me when the Visit button wouldn't.
If that menu option works you can try the following to see if you can get the Visit button to work:
1 - close iWeb.
2 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
3 - go to your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete the contents.
4 - reboot.
5 - launch iWeb and try again.

DNS Help: Configure for local and extenal services using same domain name?

Hello all. I'm setting up a 10.5 server, have scoured these great forums and gotten close, but am still stuck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
My network setup is as follows: Internet (2xT1) > modem > router/firewall/NAT device > XServe > switches > rest of network, clients, etc. Pretty standard, I believe.
I'd like to use this XServe on our local network/intranet/LAN only for OD, networked home directories, AFP, iCal, Time Machine, Print and Software Update.
My website is hosted on an external server.
My email is also hosted on a (different) external server.
Domain is school.edu
XServe name is xserve.school.edu
XServe is 10.0.0.25
I've gone through Apple's recommended DNS setup (supplemented by some great info found here on the forums....), and am able to connect to other Internet sites (with client's DNS server set as 10.0.0.25), but unable to connect to www.school.edu, or send/receive mail to/from mail.school.edu.
In short, connecting to external domains that are NOT related to my school are fine, but I'm unable to connect to any domain that IS related to my school.
If anyone out there can shoot me some notes on how to configure the DNS settings, zones, forwarding, etc. to accomplish this, I'd be VERY appreciative.
Thanks, in advance, to anyone who can help me out.
Cheers,
Tim

In short, connecting to external domains that are NOT related to my school are fine, but I'm unable to connect to any domain that IS related to my school.
If your server thinks it's authoritative for 'school.edu' then you have to add records for every host in the school.edu zone.
For example, if you want to be able to resolve 'www.school.edu' then you have to have a 'www' record. If you want to send/receive mail you have to add an MX record, and so on.
It doesn't matter that you're not responsible for those servers, it's just that since this machine thinks it 'owns' school.edu it will only respond with records in its own zone and won't care about what any other name server says, even if that other name server is authoritative for the zone.
FWIW, that's often why people running stub servers like this choose a separate subdomain (like 'dept.school.edu') so they can leave the main school.edu records on the main server and have full control over a subdomain.

Post .mac site to another domain name still on mac server?

I have both a domain name that is .mac and a .biz url. I do not have another server to upload to (I just own the domain name), and would like to use my .mac website designed using iweb '06 v.1.1.2 and load it on the mac server but have the .biz url be the url the public will use... this is for a business website. How do I do this?
The directions in all the help files assume the use of another server holding the domain name... maybe this is a requirement, but seems to be a waste to have a .mac account but have to have such a convoluted url for the public.
Is this possible?

Hi there,
little correction: they don't assume having another server. They assume having it registered from a domain registrar. Which is quite different. You have to tell the domain registrar to point the domain to .mac.
This page may help... At least I hope it does...

Move a blog to another domain name

How can I easily move an existing blog with its current and archived entries to a different site/domain name?
I have an existing family iWeb site with an embedded blog. Since viewship has grown beyond the original intended audience, I want to move the blog to its own domain name for privacy reasons.
Also, I am a .Mac family pack user. I use domain maksing to inhibit the appearance of the native URL's. The blog entries contain a number of links to previous blog entries.
I thought about the following steps but thought it wise to solicit advise first!
1. Create a new id using our .Mac family pack.
2. Copy the existing Domain file.
3. Delete all the non-blog entries within the copied file.
4. Publish the copied file to the new id.
This seems to simple to be true, which I why I thought it wise to ask for advice before trying!
Thanks

Doug...
Your steps sound pretty much on key. The only other thing that you might want to consider is creating another user account on your computer to use your separate .Mac ID. Then just copy the Domain over and delete the non-blog stuff like you said. The separate user account would make it so that you wouldn't have to manually change the .Mac info in System Preferences...just log in and log out.
