Let me preface this by saying, I am extremely new to DotNetNuke and pretty new to Web hosting in general. I just set up my first DNN installation (the current version) on Windows Server 2003. It's all set up through the wizard and is running the default site fine. However if I type in http://<my domain> into my browser, IIS's Under Construction page (iisstart.htm) is loaded. If I got to http://<my domain>/dotnetnuke, my DNN site loads fine. So what I need to know is how to have the site function so typing http://<my domain> will open my DNN site. Thanks for the help.

I suspect you have an IIS setup issue not a DNN issue. You need to make sure your DNN site (sub off the main site) is setup to respond to that domain.

Also, be sure you add an alias for your domain in DNN:
