need help setting up subdomains
the email server is mail.zetavalley.com and works fine for outlook, et. al. BUT... if I want to use the webmail function, I have to go to EXACTLY: "http://www.zetavalley.com:8000". If I leave off the http:// it says "page cannot be displayed". Of course without the port number it displays the web page.
I want to be able to point my users at a simple address that's easy to remember and doesn't require any special things like the port number or the "http://" command. Ideally I'd like to point them at "webmail.zetavalley.com" or something like that. I would be more interested in pointing to mail.zetavalley.com as well, as that would make it even easier to remember and use. I know that there is SOME way to configure "mail.*" to be used for BOTH webmail and pop mail, as many of my other accounts on various (professionally hosted) servers can do this.
I am running the Code-Crafters professional registered suite of server software, winbloze XP Pro SP2, and I have 7 domains currently. I have full control over the DNS records A, MX, and CNAME. my blinged-out homebrew server is an Athlon xp 2800, has 2gigs of ram, and 680 gigs of storage in various raid arrays that I threw together from various parts lying about.
I am also running some other servers that take up ports, which is why I have configured webmail on 8000.
Router/Firewall is Netgear FVS318.
I'd appreciate any help anyone can give.
BTW, feel free to browse the website. It's just my little bit of the infinite internet.
Thanks!!!
