[Mediawiki-l] problem configuring for a subdomain

(using Mediawiki 1.4.2)

I can't get this quite right. I have "www.mediaanthropology.net" as a add-on 
of "www.johnnorvell.net" pointing to files in /public_html/mediaanthropology. 
The wiki is in /public_html/mediaanthropology/wiki. I can get the wiki to 
appear normally when I access it as 
"www.johnnorvell.net/mediaanthropology/wiki" and have the following 
LocalSettings/php lines:

$IP = "/home/johnnorv/public_html/mediaanthropology/wiki";
ini_set( "include_path", ".:$IP:$IP/includes:$IP/languages" );
require_once( "includes/DefaultSettings.php" );
[...]
$wgScriptPath	    = "/wiki";

but when accessing it as "www.mediaanthropology.net/wiki," which I would 
prefer, I see only the unformatted output of the index page.

Following some advice on a similar issue here some months ago, I added:

$wgServer = "http://www.mediaanthropology.net";

When I do this, accessing it either way just gets the static page. Any ideas 
about what I should try? Thanks in advance...
