Neil, I'm not sure I follow you here. Are you saying people use DNS to do port redirection for requested records? As in, I go and create an alias called ww2 in a domain called xcompany.com and I am able to specify the port and get DNS to inspect a request for ww2.xcompany.com:portABC and redirect the client to the appropriate A record? Am I just reading you upside-down? Sincerely,

I like to create a DNS entry that includes the port number of the Website on one of my internap IIS boxes. I know I can do this with host headers within IIS but I was wondering wether I could do it so that www.xcompany.com <http://www.xcompany.com/> would be redirected to http://server/webiste:456 for example.
