Hello... it's the newbie here again. I have another question.

When I signed up I didn't register a new domain. Instead, I used one that is already active (nemkiv.com) and the DSN is handled by another service and I plan to keep the DSN routing the way it is. That creates a problem, because after the temporary address expires in a month, I will not be able to browse to my space.

So what I had to do was to add a second domain name to my account and let POW handle the DSN routing. If I understand this correctly, my existing domain will not be routed using POW and to when I need to refer to my pages on POW, I can just use my second domain name.

Is that correct?

This is how it would work:

Domain1<- Not hosted by PowWeb
Domain2 <- Hosted by PowWeb

When referencing files on Domain1, you'll need to point them to Domain2

ex. domain1.com/index.html would actually be domain2.com/index.html

That's if this is the way it's all set up. Personally this could be confusing. I would have Domain1 hosted under the same account as Domain2 and have them both pointed to the same items. This will cost an extra $25 (setup fee) and that's it.

Hope this helps!
