stupid question -- dns?

    Date: 03/25/06 (WebDesign)    Keywords: html, hosting

    Please bear with me -- really, I should know how to do this.

    I have a hosting account, but my domains are registered elsewhere. I'm hosting three different domains on the hosting account, which works well in that I get a zillion email addresses and can have different addresses for each domain. However, the way it's set up in the hosting is so when you type in any of the three domains, you get the same page. So, if I want three different "sites" I have to either use a "choose your destination" type thing, or make a url like www.domain1.com/page.html, which doesn't really work if the user doesn't put in the page. So I know that I have other options, but I'm not sure what they are. Am I missing a step? Is this a DNS issue? My hosting has a "custom dns record" area, but I'm not sure how to use it, or if it even matters. I don't want to mask my domains, and I can't anyway because my registrar (GoDaddy) won't let me since they are actually with the hosting account.

    Thanks!
