Samuel I also host my domain .za.org domain at grandcanyon.
Here is my solution :-

Extract from my zone file.
"; Address for the zone itself
; in this case my URL redirection service's server
; at www.forwardingweb.com

mydomain.za.org.  IN  A  206.168.98.233

At fowardingweb it is a straighforward form to fill somthing like
redirect mydomain.za.org to URL (e.g
www.isp.co.za/user/~ppompies/index.htm)

A FREE service, with a number of options on where you want their
banner ads.

I am still trying to get mt ISP to set up a mailmapping for me so I
can also send mail to mydomain.

Hope this helps.
Keith
