I don't have experience with dotnetnuke but I'm quite comfortable with IIS. &nbsp;An DNS entry has to map to a root website. &nbsp;It appears that dotnetnuke is currently a virtual folder.<br />

So, what you need to do is create a new website and configure it so it maps to the same physical folder as the virtual folder. &nbsp;Then add the DNS name as a host header for the website.

We use dotnetnuke for our intranet site and currently acces it through the browser by the following URL <a href="http://machinename/dotnetnuke" rel="ugc">http://machinename/dotnetnuke</a><br />
I am trying to use an URL intranet.domainname.com<br />
I have the DNS entry entered and a ping resolves correctly and a portal alias entered in dotnetnuke.<br />
When I attempt to access the intranet site using intranet.domainname.com it comes up as HTTP 403 and when i use intranet.domainname.com/do<wbr />tnetnuke it resolves to the <a href="http://machinename/dotnetnuke" rel="ugc">http://machinename/dotnetnuke</a>&nbsp;and works.<br />
How can I get the intranet.domainname.com URL to work?<br />
Thanks!

IIS is Internet Information Services, the web server included with Windows Server operating systems. All current versions are built on a modular architecture; modules can be added or removed individually so that those required for specific functionality are installed. The full installation of IIS includes HTTP, security, content, compression, caching, logging and diagnostics.
