Yeah, you might want to look into a browser header sniffer to see what is being sent behind the scenes, I would expect masking is not all what it is hopped up to be. You could even use IIS host headers to point all of these clients domain names to your current website and then handle the session variables normally. I would go this route, point all of the additional A records to this one website. Not sure how apache handles it but it can't be far off. Godaddy can't even get a 301 redirect correct. it's a 302 to a 301.
