Hi All

I have some webspace with DiscountASP.net (www.blenditsm.com)
At the root of my directory structure I have created a Dir called "allysong"

I have 2 additional domain names that I want to point to this folder, these domains are with BT Business and in the Domain Manager I have done this:

www.allysong.com Frame Forwards to: http://blenditsm.com/allysong/index.htm

www.allysong.co.uk Frame Forwards to:
http://blenditsm.com/allysong/index.htm


Whenever I try and navigate to either of the AllySong URL's I get no founds, and I can't nslookup from my ISP (BeBroadband):

C:\Users\Tom>nslookup www.allysong.com
Server: ns1.betherenow.co.uk
Address: 87.194.0.66
DNS request timed out.
timeout was 2 seconds.

Tested with OpenDNS

C:\Users\Tom>nslookup www.blenditsm.com 208.67.222.222
Server: resolver1.opendns.com
Address: 208.67.222.222
Non-authoritative answer:

Address: 89.187.101.71

C:\Users\Tom>nslookup www.allysong.com 208.67.222.222
Server: resolver1.opendns.com
Address: 208.67.222.222
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: www.allysong.com
Address: 98.124.198.1

C:\Users\Tom>nslookup www.allysong.co.uk 208.67.222.222
Server: resolver1.opendns.com
Address: 208.67.222.222
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: www.allysong.co.uk
Address: 98.124.199.1


Whatever I do though (tried modifying my DNS to OpenDNS) I can't get to either of the allysong addresses. I can navigate direct to the URL though:

http://blenditsm.com/allysong/index.htm



Where am I going wrong? Or do I need to change some setting in my hosting? If I'm being retarded - please form an orderly queue :)

Your web forwarding is working here, both the .com and the .co.uk, and I'm with Be/O2.

nslookup won't show anything if you haven't configured any DNS records.
 
Works fine for me, on Be also.

It's possible that you have cached the result, running "ipconfig/flushdns" at a command prompt may solve this (unless it's getting cached at your router which is also quite likely).
