I have a 3rd party module (Active Forums) that I want users to go to directly using www.MySite.com/forums. (I added DNN to work with Active Forums, so it is not installed as the base part of my website).

Also, right now I can only access my forums from the server (via localhost/dotnetnuke)--if I try a remote machine, it does not work.

How do I achieve it so that users can access the forums directly with a simple URL?

The first thing to check is the Alias within the DNN site.  Login under the Host account and go to the portals tab.   You will see the current Aliases for the site listed.   If you do not see the URL there, you need to add it (it may only have localhost currently).   Click on the blue pen to edit that site (which is also site settings), and at the bottom of the page you will see HTTP Alias.   Leave the Localhost alias there, but add your url as another alias.
