Can I clarify, is it IMPortal or IntegraMOD you installed and did you see the KB http://integramod.com/forum/kb.php?mode=article&k=13

You have a domain setup on your server, and the forum in a subfolder. There are several ways you can go about setting up the redirection, depending in part due to the type of server. Perhaps your safest bet is to make a .htm redirect and put it in your root and forum folders

Stephanie the easiest way to make it your real front page when you go to your domain is to edit index.html and in the header paste the following

Line number On/Off | Expand/Contract | Select all

META http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=portal.php"

This forum wouldn't allow me to do the signs around meta and the ending of portal.php" what you need to do is add those one before meta < and one after portal.php" >
Now if you are talking about editing which page your forum starts on that is a different story you would have to change some of the redirects from index.php to portal.php
