Please don't respond to this message if your only going to provide 2 lines in order to get your post count up as well bash godaddy.

I have a main portal running fine. I created another portal from main and it can be accessed but not the way I would have expected or like. Here is the problem example and my plea for help: www.mainportal.com created www.notmainportal.com/dotnetnuke. On godaddy, in order for www.mainportal.com to resolve instead of www.mainportal.com/dotnetnuke I had to alter the welcome.html file with the following snip of code: <script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
window.location="http://www.mainportal.com/dotnetnuke/"; </script>

Last bit of info that is weird or I just don't understand fully why - when I try to access www.notmainportal.com I'm directed directly to wwwMAINportal.com but if I type in www.notmainportal.com/dotnetnuke I'm in like Flynn! What do I need to do in the welcome file to main the domain name resolve to the second portal off my main portal.

Jody,

Thanks for your time! I don't belive your trying to get your post count up seeing that you only have 11 post. However, if you read over what I've explained as the problem... you will see I have already covered what Godaddy writes up about what to do with one site.... and have that working correctly. You can see that  directly in the script part of my plea for help first post.

I did find this during my 24 hours of research:

Excuse me for being completely new to ASP.NET, but in I was wondering if you could point me to a tutorial on the "hosting multiple sites using default.aspx" method? I'd like to try this as I can't justify $15 per domain. Thanks!

Chris, here is the code I use in the root Web directory's default.aspx page to redirect the user to the appropriate subdirectory based on their URL (this code would go in the Page_Load event handler):

If Request.Url.Host.ToUpper().IndexOf("SCOTTONWRITING.NET") >= 0 then
     Response.Redirect("/sowBlog/")
     Response.End()
ElseIf Request.Url.Host.ToUpper().IndexOf("SKMMENU.COM") >= 0 then
     Response.Redirect("/menu/")
     Response.End()
ElseIf Request.Url.Host.ToUpper().IndexOf("NBAWEBLOG.COM") >= 0 then
     Response.Redirect("/nba/")
     Response.End()
End If

But that being the case... I have a welcome.html file first... instead of what this explains as the default.aspx file. So if I'm to use a default.aspx file, can someone send an example they might be using on godaddy?

If you read over this and you just understand me at all here... let me know so that I can explain better... regardless I need help from the dnn community.

Here is a link from there that may prove to be useful - http://www.mynetnuke.com/. It has information in a Popular Articles section and installing DNN to the root. I did not look at it yet as it requires registration, which I did not do at this time. I will at some point in the future, but short on time now... need to get some zzzzz's soon.
