I have two seperate hosts (www1,www2) running a copy of htdig314, I just
want to have the results from the search (on www1,www2) return
www.domain.com so users have no idea there are two hosts being
balanced...
I really appreciate the help, I installed Local Director the other day
and this was my next objective...THANKS!!!
