how do you get the raq2 to accept both
www.virtualdomain.com and virtualdomain.com ?
i have the dns setup properly cuz it works fine on our website pro 2
box but when i put the domain on the raq box it only responds to
www.virtualdomain.com. if i go to virtualdomain.com the main domain
homepage comes up.
i called sun cobalt tech and they said to make sure that the ptr
is set right.
also i don't use the raq for email or dns. those are served by other
boxes.

thanks

On the Site Settings page of the GUI for the site in question it should have been set up as follows:

IP: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Host Name: www
Domain Name: domain.com
Web Server Alias: domain.com
Email Server Alias:  You said you were not using it.

This is the all that is needed from the cobalt box.

The DNS that sends your domain to your cobalt box could make a difference though.

I used register.com for my DNS. I set up my site and send it to my cobalt IP address. I normally have *.domain.com sent to the IP address as well as www.domain.com sent to my IP address. If not, you may not get the site as you are seeing at this time. Try the cobalt setting first. If they are correct, try pinging the domain.com and www.domain.com from an outside network. Or use tracert to see. If you don't have an outside connection, I am willing to try for you.
