I want to create a DNS entry on my 2000 server so that when users type in www.av.netls.org they will get av.netls.org. av.netls.org is registered. I need this for a short time while database is being moved to remote machine.
What is the best way to do this in Windows 2000 on a AD server?

YOu'll need to install IIS on a server in the av.netis.org domain first. Then in DNS, create a new Alias record for the that server. type in www.av.netls.org as the Alias name.

good luck,

First attempt to answer this included installing IIS on the av.netls.org machine. IIS has nothing to do with creating a alias in DNS. Also, this machine is not a windows machine.
