We do external DNS for a handful of sites through a service called
zoneedit.com. I highly recommend 'em -- they can handle wildcard DNS and all
kinds of other DNS-fu. And the cost? FREE! (Up to a certain amount of
traffic -- they make their money off of extra services, like backup
mailservices and whatnot.)

Subject: (OT) Wildcard DNS entries
so I am setting a simple hosting service for community sites.
when the request pops in, I'll parse the request header for the domain, and
then load up the content specific to that domain.
now. is there a way using
1) microsoft DNS on w2k to make woldcard entries for a domain?
ie www.*.somedomain.com ==> somehost.com
and *.somedomain.com ==> somehost.com
2) wildcard entries in IIS? so all subdomains get picked up by one site in
IIS - withou having to enter them all in?
Eric
