Free Web Sites

[Dino]

I have added my own wed site to the web free list both as a URL and IP address. I still cannot access the site although I can access all the other web free sites. I am still in evaluation version of the software.

I have added the IP address of the web site to the current free IP addresses. Problem is that my web site has IP address :Port Number.

I have also added the web address name in the current free domain names and have put it in in different versions ie:
http://www.domainname.com
www.domainname.com
domainname.com

FirstSpot will support different ports.

Again, I need you to post the above 2 files to further diagnose the problem.

It allows me to post other exception free web sites like msn.com, but will not allow my web site

I got the IP address to work as an exception free site.

It will have to do. The domain address does not work. I do not know if it has to do with the domain name being forwarded?

Thanks

Yes, web site forward may affect the Exception Free Websites.

Again, I need that 2 files to make further recommendation.

It looks the your Exception Free Websites is not added to FirstSpot at all!

Note that when you are adding Exception Free Websites (domain or IP) in Configuration Manager, you need to click save after you click add.

That is strange because it saves it in the config manager and it is there after restart.

I will delete and re-save.
