asked on
URL for website (hosted onsite), how to combine with our public website?
We have a public (hosted) website.
We are making an internal webserver and need some advice how to setup a public URL for it.
1) Something like www.MyCompany.com/schedules/
2) Or should we register a new name or just use one of our public IP addresses? (we have 3 unused)
3) or something else?
Anyone have any tips or advice to set this up exactly?
(Bonus points for code so that Google and other search engines will not index our new site).
Thank you,
HappyTech

IIS, Linux...?
If it's just schedules (to download or something) I would probably recommend a sub domain of your public site that you can upload to rather than opening your internal network to the web.
How you secure it will depend on your server.

May I ask exactly the steps to make a sub domain of our public site?

Create an A record. Is that something I would do with our domain register or ?
Depends - are they hosting your DNS, could be your hosting provider.
Hello TheHappyTech,
Yes, the A records need to be created on your domain registrar, i.e., Godaddy.com or Networksolutions.com.

Ok, let me try to get that A record created and I will come back and award points.

Is that possible to make an internal webserver use a subdomain off a hosted public webpage?
(I hope I am wording that right).
Thank you Gary
