The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

DNS & IIS --resolving a domain and subdomain to the same URL

Asked by pmosinskis in Microsoft IIS Web Server

Tags: iis, subdomain, url, directory, dns

Hi,

I have two servers:

1. web server running on a DMZ which hosts a web site for www.mycompany.com
2. domain controller and Active Directory-integrated DNS server on an internal network. hosting the domain mycompany.com

I want users who come to my web site to be able to type in either:
http://www.mycompany.com
or
http://mycompany.com
and end up at the same place.

The way I did this before is to run IIS on the domain controller (not a good idea), create a web site using the IP of the domain controller, and use an IIS redirect to push the user to the www.mycompany.com page. Do I create a new host record on the DNS on the domain controller, & point it to the DMZ web server? I'm worried that this approach might interfere with our Active Directory setup in some way, will it?

I know there's gotta be a better way, what is it??? Many thanks!
