[cobalt-users] Accessing Site By Host Name



I have created a site named www.domain.com and one named web.domain.com.

For some reason I can not get to web.domain.com. I also have web.domain.com set up to give Web access by domain. So, when a user simply accesses domain.com the URL resolves out to web.domain.com and I get the following error message:

Socket Error - Host name lookup for 'web.domain.com' failed

www.domain.com does work properly ... the web.domain.com continues to not allow me to connect. This is the first time that I have tried to set up an alternate host name for a domain that was already working properly under another host name.

Am I missing something?  Is this a DNS entry related problem?

(oh by the way there is also a c-name entry for this domain in my ISP's DNS pointing forums.domain.com to www.anothersite.com --- if that makes any difference).
