Hi Sebastian

Thanks for your reply. Actually I have tried parent portals, but it did not work. Can you help me?  Here is my query.

I have windows XP and developing application using localhost(I.P. address 192.168.169.8). I have installed DotNetNuke in the folder F:\dotnetnuke. Then I have created a virtual directory dnn and mapped it to that folder.
For  my default website, I have two Portal Aliases - i) localhost/dnn (default) ii)192.168.169.8/dnn ( I have added, so that I can see my page from other machine).

Firstly I have tried child portals. I have added a new portal
192.168.169.8/dnn/lake. Here a site is created with default menu. Its portal id is assigned  1. I can add new page.  For this child portal, a new folder lake and default.aspx is created.

Secondly I have tried parent portals. I have added a new portal  192.168.169.8/city. Here also a portal id (2) is created.  But no site(i.e with home, admin menu )  is created. It creates a blank page(i.e. The page cannot be found. ....  ). For this site no folder and default.aspx is created. Even I cannot enter into the page entering the userid and password , which I have made during partent portal creation. How will I add pages for this parent portal ?

Syscon,

multiple parent portals does not work properly with virtual directories and is intended for designated IIS web sites, e.g. if you have a web site www.mydomain.com pointing to a DotNetNuke installation, you can add www.seconddomain.com in your name server, pointing to the same web site (optionally using host headers, if multiple installations are hosted on same IP) and now create the second portal with address www.seconddomain.

HTH

Thanks a lot. I was looking for this answer. I will not try anymore in localhost.
I have another browser problem. My  website has two more menu beside Home.  I am using localhost.   In my machine I can see all the three menus, both  in IE and Firefox.   To see the page I am entering http://192.168.169.8/dnn.  Now when I am seeing that site from other machine in IE, I can see all the menus. No problem. But when I am trying to see that site from  other machine( Windows or Linux)  in Firefox, I can see only the Home menu. I am using the default skin. I am having no problem to see www.dotnetnuke.com ( i.e. with all menu/submenu)  in Firefox in anytype of machine(Windows or Linux).
Why I cannot see other menus in Firefox from other machine? What I have done wrong?

Regards
-Syscon
