domain/ip adres

we used to connect OWA through our https://domianname.org/exchange. Our
website was hosted in our own server, but we moved it out with another
company.
Now when we enter https://domainname.org/exchange it doesn't work. If I
enter https://ipaddress/exchange it works, but I don't want to use the IP
address. Where exactly I have to make changes? In our exchange server?? Or
the compnay that's hosting our website now? If I have to make a change in our
server, please be specific exactly where...

Thank you.

Sounds like you have a DNS problem.

Hi there, sounds like you need to change your dns record of domainname.org to
th new ip address that you an use to connect to your new OWA site. Presumably
you have a dns A record along the lines or mail.domainname.org that you use
when connecting to OWA with the added /exchange component on the end (the
/exchange is nothing to do with dns, dns purele resolves names to ip's , or
vice versa). Hope that helps
James.

You likely need to update the DNS on your nameservers to point
domainname.org to the new IP address.

If you ping domainname.org at a command prompt and get a different IP
address than the one you are using for OWA access, that's the problem.

I did ping domainname.org and got a very different IP address than the one
that we are using now; where did that come from? The website was in our old
server; our exchange was and still is in our current server. All we did was
move the website, but the exchange server is still in the same place in our
server...

Hi - I believe I replied to your identical post in another newsgroup. In the
future, please don't multipost - if you need to post to multiple groups,
it's best to crosspost instead, by posting a single message to a handful of
relevant groups (separate the NG names with commas) so that everyone can
follow the thread. Multiposting wastes everyone's time, including yours, and
may lead to your actually getting *less* help rather than more.
