    Windows Server

    Hello, I have a domain xyz.com on a Windows Server

    Now, currently, I can only load it if the domain is prefixed with www or blog or whatever, however, how do I enable access through xyz.com?

    www.xyz.com and xyz.com should display the same content as used to on cPanel server.

    Just create another host header xyz.com, you should be able to view both xyz.com and www.xyz.com

    Indeed; when you create a site in IIS it only creates one host header which you've created as domain.com so you'll need to go into IIS and create a host header for www.domain.com

    For IIS6

    Open IIS
    Click on "Web Sites" and right click the website and select "Properties"
    On the Website Tab press Advanced
    Now Click Add
    Put in the TCP port 80 and your new header below it
    Now click OK and OK and you're done.

    Hi, Windows Server 2008, so IIS 7 - doesn't make much of a difference I suppose.

    I've tried host-header values, and it's not working

    Ahh, your issues are actually with your DNS Zone. Note how www pings and domain.com does not.
