Alright I have now decided I have no other choice but to change The DNS. I am going from name zero to dns2go. I am slightly confused as to how to change over the accounts. I have 2 seperate accounts with namezero one is mine and one is my girlfriends The each have there own set of user information but I used my own credit card to purchase em. I have been told that the two domains need to be grouped in dns2go with the same email to function properly. Is this a problem with the way I have things setup now? Second is the only thing that needs to be done through namezero is to change the conection addresses? I am a little confused about all of this and could really use some help to get through it.
thanks in advance.

Hi mate,

You must have changed the port as that is not a defualt, this is an application so the defaults are always the same.

Open the dns2go program, go to SERVICE SETTINGS > ONLINE

Select point my domain to my current IP address. Click Apply

Now, restart dns2go so that it regognises the both domains and if you have any problems, then fully explain..

Hope this helps Wullie

I do have it set to the default point to current ip address and have reset the defaults using the restore option. The 2 sites are not coming up however. I am not sure exactly whats up but is up and going the second comes up as page cannot be displayed error. I thought it may be a virtual host issue but I don't know

The following Error(s) occurred:
You are attempting to redirect web requests to the standard HTTP port
If you are running a web server on port 80 then web redirection is not necessary
Please either do not use web redirection or specify a non-standard HTTP port

There is no place to update the port other than in the redirect section. The only other option is to add it to my ip address in the use current ip address section. It currently does not specify a port there just the ip 65.32.227.13 should i add the :80 to the end of the ip?
