Hi Chris, Sounds like you need a dedicated server. Something like Plesk can handle what you are looking for. Plesk can handle multiple domains under one IP address. Just a thought...:)

The group is fast today. I guess I took too long in writing my post. When I started there was only John's post so sorry if my previous post seems out of order. Also, can anyone directly discuss the problems/solutions to URL rewriting in regards to folks on shared servers? Thanks, Chris On 8/16/07, Christopher Jordan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> wrote: John, I'm having a similar problem. I just bought a new domain last night (which will bring my total to two), and the problem is that I've only got one webroot. So both http://domain1.com and http://domain2.com point to the same root folder. I can check for the existence of "domain2" in the http_referer and then do a cflocation to the subfolder that will act as domain2's root and will contain domain2's site information, but then I get http://domain2.com/subfolder/index.cfm instead of http://domain2.com/index.cfm. I called my hosting company and they told me that the only ways to overcome this would be through URL rewriting, or by maintaining both sites out of the same root. The latter option sounds like a train wreck waiting to happen. I did some preliminary searching for URL rewriting last night, but most of the solutions seem to involve a level of control over the web server that I'm not sure I've got. I feel like if I could set up an IIS virtual directory, that I'd be good, but I don't think I have the ability to do that. What's the simplest way to do URL rewriting -- that can be accomplished by someone using a hosting company (mine's crystaltech)?

I've not had a lot of good luck with URL rewriting on IIS. There are a couple of filters out there that can do it, but it seems most say they're not for production.
