I'm attempting to use node.js on centOS6 VPS to host a website. I have a basic app running and everything works when I go to the ip 198.11.54.18, however when I go to the domain name sluap.com I get page not found. I'm thinking something is wrong with my venet0 or venet0:0 configs, but I'm not sure what to look for. I can ping sluap.com, and the whois stuff all looks correct, so I figure it has to be a setting or step in centOS that I'm doing wrong. Maybe the problem is completely unrelated, any help would be appreciated, I've been trying to fix this for a long time.

Because I was using a2 hosting I was under the impression that my name server was NS1.A2HOSTING.COM, but for their vps they use dns1.name-services.com instead. Apparently the problem had 0% to do with the loop back config or the venet0 configurations. They were all correct and working fine with a default centOS install...
