# #1)
# I want the 5 companies with registered domains to share the
# 1 IP address. (we don't receive that much traffic.)
# How?
The RR entries for the domains need to point to the machine (e.g. your
machine with one static IP).. Sample:
domain1.com:
www.domain1.com. IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
<more entries>
domain2.com:
www.domain2.com. IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
<more entries>
If you use Apache, look at the documentation on name-based virtual
domains. It will tell you want you need to do on the Apache-side so your
www host can serve up pages for multiple domains.

# I'm thinking of 3rd level domains. Say dept1.mycompany.com,
# dept2.mycompany.com. That way I don't need to pay the
# internic fee. Can I also do the same in my Linux Machine?
#
I think I will let the guys that do network designs recommend solutios to
this. But my initial thought is you will need to do the translation at
application level -- e.g. all FQDN point to one IP, then the applications
handle the redirection(like Apache's virtual domains.) Or if the machines
do not need to be visible in the internet (e.g. intranet), you can use
private IPs, then use IPMasq for address translation.
