Rick, An entry on the dns server for "*.mydomain.com" resolves any host that is not otherwise specified to that IP address.
We do this for development subdomains. We have a domain with a wildcard entry that points to our busiest development server. When we need a new dev domain (which can happen 8 or 10 times in a week) we simply go to the server and add a new "site" with a host header.... It automatically resolves without fooling with IIS. If you had a wildcard entry you could simply add "www.admin.mydomain.com" + admin.mydomain.com plus any other *.mydomain.com to your host header list on the site. -----Original Message----- From: Rick Faircloth [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, December 02, 2006 11:45 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Advice needed on how to proceed with app... > Another approach is to use a wildcard entry with a dedicated IP. Not sure I understand that... do you mean a wildcard entry for an IP for a particular CMS domain?

You can pretty easily make "www.rea.white.... Work..... I do this routinely. If I add a subdomain intended for run of the mill users I also add a "www.

Another approach is to use a wildcard entry with a dedicated IP. -mk ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:262624 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
