So, I'm trying to figure out how to host a .bit domain on my server. When I try mapping the domain directly to my server ip, and then try to access the domain from a webbrowser, I still get "Server not found." Do I have to add the ip for this dns server to my server to host .bit domains?
You need to also set up your webserver to have the correct domain (including the .bit) as a virtual host to serve the pages to clients requesting via that Host name. There can also be issues with transparent proxies run by your ISP. An ISP at one location where I am refuses to serve up .bit domains as they sniff the HTTP traffic and do DNS lookups on the Host: line in the HTTP headers. This fails and the request dies.
