Attaching DSLR to telescope

Hi there,
I jsut want to see how people typically connect their DSLR to their telescope. I've been trying to do it with the Bintel camera adapter and a T-Ring. Using an Eyepiece in the Camera adapter. This assembly replaces the camera lens.
This seems to carry a few problems. A big one with focusing (been raising this in the Beginners section of this site). Also, there is no aperature controls so everything is done on manual.

I guess the big thing i seem to be getting is that people keep their lenses on. Is this right? How do you do it?

thanks

PS. I tired to attach an image of the camera adapter. Not sure what I've done so it may or may not appear.
