| We finally deployed our CMS server last night 
There are 2 things that we'd like to behave a little different.
We have 1 box on the inside so only certain users can get to and edit the
CMS. The problem is the URL's from the inside box render to the outside
box.
Basically, we have about a dozen autogenerated links:
Inside Non Edit Mode
Link A is http://www.mysite.com/A
Link B is http://www.mysite.com/B
.....
Inside Edit Mode
Link A is http://myserver/www.mysite.com/A
Link B is http://myserver/www.mysite.com/B
.....
Outside
Link A is http://www.mysite.com/A
Link B is http://www.mysite.com/B
.....
The issue being when a user on the inside edit (and not in edit mode)
clicks on a link it take them to the outside, since that's where the URL
is resolving.
I would prefer the Inside Non Edit to take the person the URL's like the
Insdie Edit does basically go to http://myserver/www.mysite.com/A
instead of Link A is http://www.mysite.com/A
The only reason I'm trying to do this is that each of the link has a
different department managing it, soi they have to remeber to click edit
before the click on the link for their department. If was hoping there
was a way to override the javascript file or such.
The other thing is how to make the URL's for pdf's, documents, ect. not
be a long url with a guid and /rdonlyres/....
Any ideas or info would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
James

| Hi James,
is the inside box a standard edition or an enterprise edition server?
The fact that the URLs are shows as "http://myserver/www.mysite.com" rather
than "http://www.mysite.com" would be strange if this would not be a
standard edition.
Or are both servers running against a different database?
Cheers,
Stefan

This is enterprise edition and they both are running against the same
server.
Maybe I didn't explain myself correctly.
Both inside and outside can get to http://www.mysite.com which is used in
readonly mode, the one in edit mode is http://myserver/www.mysite.com/
If a user wants to edit they go to http://myserver/www.mysite.com/ and
from there they can make changes, but the URL's in a autogenerated
navigation bar go to http://www.mysite.com unless my users are editing.
Hopefull this explains it a little better, and it's possible I do have
something setup incorrect, but from documentation I've read this is setup
correctly.
Thanks,
James

| Hi James,
it is not supported to use this URL if map channel name to host header name
is enabled.
You should use this workaround to use a different servername in your browser
to route to a different website:
