Marc, Thanks for the reply. I think we may have it worked out now. The bottom line was that management wanted to use the same domain name for two different servers - one for static content, one for CF apps. We toyed around with having area1.company.com point to the Eprise server and area1.company.com/apps point to the apps server. Management thought the users would be confused with changing URLs. Anyway to make a long story short, management has decided that two different domains will work. Which is good. Because that is the way it must work. --Jefffrey -----Original Message----- From: Marc Gadsdon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, April 24, 2001 1:54 AM To: Fusebox Subject: RE: domain quandary Hi Jeff, I'm not entirely clear as to exactly what you need to know in order to achieve this? Pointing a domain name to a server means adding an "A" host entry in the zone file of the second level domain ie. company.com. Thus you would end up with area1.company.com --> 192.168.1.1 (server one IP address) and area2.company.com --> 192.168.57.63 (server two IP address). Is that it or am I missing the point completely? Marc -----Original Message----- From: Marsh, Jeffrey B [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 23 April 2001 22:56 To: Fusebox Subject: OT: domain quandary Please excuse the off topic-ness of this post. I have a quandary involving two servers. One server will host mostly static content delivered through Eprise. The other server will host ColdFusion applications. We are talking intranet here. We want to use web domain names something like area1.company.org, area2.company.org, etc. to point to the Eprise server. I'm kind of at a loss as to how to point to the CF server. It would be nice to use the same domain name - impossible. I was thinking about apps.area1.company.org, apps.area2.company.org, etc. or something like that. But I don't like the application/content division. Does anyone have any suggestions? The two servers are not the same configuration and do not host the same content. But I need a way to point users to theses servers without confusing them (or the developers) too much. Thanks. --- Jeffrey B.
