url masking/unmasking question on apache 2.0.42

Asked by filibuster1015 in Apache Web Server

Tags: url, masking, apache

I have apache 2.0.47 sitting on a windows xp machine and http is running from port 3361. I'm using www.no-ip.com for my domain name. At this point, I am "masking" my url so that regardless of how users browse their location bar always reads www.wnystudentexchange.com. So... for instance... if a user is on my home page and they browse to /house/index.php they still see www.wnystudentexchange.com in the location bar.

If I take masking off of my url, then users who go to my site are immediately redirected to http://76.180.83.117:3361/bcs/. A user who then browses to house/index.php is taken to http://76.180.83.117:3361/bcs/house/index.php and they're able to see the entire url in their location bar.

Here's the problem. I want to be able to take masking off of my url but I don't want users automatically taken to http://76.180.83.117:3361/bcs. I want their location bars to continue to read www.wnystudentexchange.com and when they browse to house/index.php, I want thir location bars to read www.wnystudentexchange.com/house/index.php. So far, this seems impossible to do. How can I make this happen? I figure there might be some settings in apache that might help. Or maybe I need to do something with no-ip. Or, maybe yet something else.

All feedback is welcome. Thank You.
