DO. address and IP #
If you link two puters together by network, one with you in the US ands the other in the DR, the one in the US could control the one in the DR, then anything you emailed or any site you surfed into, would read your DR IP.

You my friend need a Proxy Server, go here:
Proxy List Free: Proxies in country Dominican Republic - domain .DO. AliveProxy WEB SSL VPN Anonymous Secured Internet Access Services
In your Browser you will need to go to tools, internet options, connections, LAN settings, check in the box that says use a proxy server with your LAN, press the advanced buttong and there put in HTTP the proxy address that you will find in the page I already put. Choose the high anonimity one followed by the less response time in milliseconds.

Marketing Advantage?
My first question would be definition of "Dominican business". If it is truley a "Dominican business I would think it (.do) might lend more credibility to the name. If it is a International biz perhaps the .do might give another type of image to the customer.I think it becomes part of your marketing plans.
BTW--.do AND .com (both) might not be available. I have seen tons of names avail. one way and not the other.
The basis of my OP was for one part of my business that I am developing I have already registered the name under .com but want to offer a service/products that might have a marketing advantage under .do.

Thanks John! I understand your point. And I just accidently typed www.dr1.com.co !! instead of .do (Robert wasn't joking about Colombia!)
So from my understanding you have to go through the Dominican Republic NetWorks Information Center to register a .com.do domain. ($70 US for 2 years).
N S . N I C . D O / FAQ
Am I wrong here? Thanks, in advance.
This I can't answer with authority as I have not done it yet.
I'm sure someone will answer the question here in a couple of days.
Good Luck

Peetie, I have no idea who you are, but anytime you want a good dinner in Santiago, let me know and it will be my pleasure to invite you. Its hard to find guys that understand your level DNS and mailserver configuration in the DR. 
Thank you for the tip on Spam filters. I would have thought .com would have been filtered more. So much to learn, I appreciate your generosity in sharing.
Could incoming mail go to multiple .com addresses and then be forwarded to various accounts (hotmail, gmail, yahoo) where the recipient(s) would be able to "reply as" using a .com or .do address??
I'm sure a host will answer all this Peetie, I'm just trying to line up the duckies first and figure out the best way for multiple individuals who use hotmail and gmail to receive and reply to mail as .com or .do? I guess it would be a nightmare to get them to configure their MS Outlook or Hotmail or whatever. (We would have to go there... ) Or would they just login to a Webmail account and reply?
I can only offer your gf ESL classes in Toronto or dancing in POP.

Thanks!
Yes, planner and I are going to start doing readings and healings... lol at Terrazo Caribe! Thank you so much Peetie!
If I'm not wrong then I think you can only get a .com.do domain here and the hassle is to actually go to the PUCMM and pay for it all the time.
Another disadvantage is that the people here don't seem to know much when it comes to changing DNS etc. and on top you have to deal with the PUCMM on one side to get it changed and Codetel on the other side who always have problems with their DNS servers TTL.
If anybody needs good hosting just PM me, I have my Servers in a Data Center in Texas and can set-up new sites in minutes.
Happy eastern weekend.

I know but it's bad for local businesses who depend local not so high-tech users being connected to codetel, centennial or any other bad service here.
For my part at least I have my hosting facility outside the country and normally no problems using any other domains than .com.do , but when it comes dealing with the PUCMM and codetel to get some simple DNS problems fixed then it's getting funny.
