I am only getting an error on the second URL, but what i *think* is wrong is that your DNS for http://framegroup.com.au needs to map to the directory of http://www.framegroup.com.au

Or you need to add an additional host header in the webserver for framegroup.com.au? Maybe right now it tries to show you the default web site instead?

I have carried out the steps illustrated here (Setting host headers in IIS 6.0):
http://www.visualwin.com/host-header/
We still get the same error
Does it needs to be modified on the server where our DNS is hosted?

Have just re tested, the only one that still fails is:
http://framegroup.com.au/
I am inside our network. Not sure if hitting the pages externally makes a differece? (My networking skills are minimal)

This one works fine for me...
Maybe the internal DNS is changing things for you?
What do you get when you ping both domain names in a command prompt? Do you get the same results?

Morning - I tested extenally last night, all three now work. Thanking dparsons and Imar for thier assistance.
http://www.framegroup.com.au - works internal, works externaly
http://framegroup.com.au - does not work internal (403 error), works externaly
ping = could not find host
www.framegroup.com.au - works internal, works external
ping = gets reply
Im asuming this is outside the control of administratice accessto the web server? The person who has access to the DNS server needs to fix this?

Mat,
Like Imar I am not a networking guy (I know enough to get buy and thats about it) but yes I believe your Network Admin will have to adjust the DNS so that the URL in question will resolve correctly for everyone on the internal network.
Hth and glad you got it working to everyone on the outside.

If you only want to make this work on your local machine, you can also add an entry in the lmhosts file.
You can do this through the settings for your network connection on the TCP/IP settings section. Don't know the exact steps, but Google does... ;-)

I have passed on the DNS issue onto the guys who have access to the DNS server. I am happy the external issue is fixed..
Thankyou all.

Sorry to say that the issue for the non www part of your site is not working again. I tried today a few seconds ago.
Sorry for the news just thought you would want to know this.
