dns, 'a' records and domain pointing.

Hi,

I'm new to this 'back-end' (ooh err!) malarkey and would like some help in pointing my domain names.

my domain names are registered with 123-reg

my hosting is with uk2.net

I cannot seem to find a way to get the domain name "www.somerset-arms.com" to link to the "www.skewedhues.com/somerset-arms.com" directory as if it were an individual website.

Before I registered UK2 said this was a straightforward 'a record' issue. Now that I've signed up, I can't seem to get any further information. I was told not to use nameservers!

What am I doing wrong. Help would be very much appreciated.

Barrie

Try www.skewedhues.com/somerset-arms as opposed to www.skewedhues.com/somerset-arms.com

as a subdirectory somerset-arms is preferred
