[QUOTE="2surgeons, post: 1325663, member: 142886"] I am running Mac Lion on an iMac 2007, with an upgraded Seagate 2TB hard drive (upgraded 6 mo ago). I configured Lion server originally intending to access the server via the web. To do this, I needed several things: first, a DNS update client to update the dynamic ip address of my router to the static ip address of my website. I thought about a free domain name, but in order to easily configure Lion server, I need an SSL certificate for the web domain, and for that I need to control the domain. So I configured a No-IP DUC DNS client to update 2surgeons.com with my dynamic ip address. Got the SSL. Server would not configure. Could not access. I had difficulty because the Nameservers at Godaddy were not pointing to the Noip name servers, which were the ones being updated by the No-ip DUC. It became a mess. Then I tried to trash all the work I'd done before, deleting users and groups, and reinstalling Lion server, and set up the server on another domain, 2surgeonsfamily.com. Starting fresh. I used the other domain, 2surgeons.com, as a hosted weblog for the future. I started fresh with another domain name. TRouble with setting up the open directory (which was already setup, so tough to change). Anyway, now to the problem. I have had it with Lion Server. I'm done. I just want to host a blog on 2surgeons.com. SO>> on the iMac I used as a server, I cannot connect to 'www.2surgeons.com'. every time I type in the address, it defaults to [url]https://2surgeons.com[/url], and then gives me a blank page with Apache lists and errors. I de-activated Server by turning off all applications hosted, unchecked 'dedicate system resources to server', and then deleted the folder with Server Tools, Emptied th trash, and then restarted. There is no server on my iMac anymore. Cant find it. Good.
