Chris, thank you. That has to be the clearest, most helpful post I have ever received. Your explanation makes perfect sense. Guess I'll need to do this on the server.
Thanks again!
Sorry for the confusion. newdomain.us is on one server, mainsite.org is on another server and sharing an IP address with other sites.

At this point I've created a CNAME entry for the new domain that points to the...
I think this is a simple configuration but the answer eludes me. I'd appreciate some help.
I need to set up DNS (for newdomain.us) that simply forwards to the primary website (domain.org). Domain.org is on a shared IP so I'm not sure what records should be in the newdomain.us record. Do I use...
I have a related question. In Outlook 2003, whenever I click on an attached JPG image, the XP picture viewer comes up but displays the message, 'No preview available'. When I close it down, there is a Microsoft Office Outlook popup window with the message 'The system cannot find the file...
