Hi,

That interests me too. Let's say I've got server.xy.ch which provides
mail and web services for a number of virtual domains. Thus for each
ss that and is nevertheless correct?uch domain I have
domain.ch CNAME server.xy.ch
and have setup the web server to accept http://domain.ch and the mail
server accepts [EMAIL PROTECTED] addresses.
Now for some reason, I want to migrate the web server to web.xy.ch while
keeping mail on server.xy.ch. What would be the correct solution?
I would have also attempted the MX/CNAME construct shown above, as
domain.com MX server.xy.ch
domain.com A <IP address of web.xy.ch>
has the obvious disadvantage, that you replicate the ip address of
web.xy.ch multiple times, once for each such virtual domain. And I
wouldn't have supposed, that while with an A/MX pair mailers do prefer
MX over A, they wouldn't do it in a CNAME/MX configuration.
Is there any other solution which avoid mapping of multiple domains to
the same IP-address and is legal?
