Web access

I have just setup a apache web server , now I can use the domain name to access the page ( eg . www.my_domain.com , it works ) , but when use the full address ( eg. www.my_domain.com/=newthrea ) , it pop "dns_unresolved_hostname" , can advise what is wrong ? thx

It's more likely the "=" in the URL. Since it's a special character, it messes with the .com part and produces a different domain name that browser cannot resolve.
You can replace "=" with its hex code "%3D" and see if it works.

thx reply , www.my_domain.com/=newthrea is only example of web address ( as the address is too long , I didn't post it to my qeustion ) .

Thx

whatever comes after the .com/ will be treated as a get string so this should not give the problem.
anyhow, check the .htaccess.
this is what i can tell from the given info. :-)
