Re: Web forwarding in BIND
Thanks for this and all the other input. When you say regular Web browser, it's safe to conclude that Firefox, IE and Safari are all included in this category? If so, then yes, that is the target audience. I have an odd (and frustrating) situation where I manage the DNS for a Web service that's housed outside of my institution who for some reason doesn't want to configure virtual hosting. A workaround was (actually in place at this moment) to point DNS to a Web server I manage and do the appropriate virtual hosting config and redirect. However, the group that manages the content for that Web server somehow doesn't want to it this way. Oh well. - Hoover Chanhc...@mail.ewind.com -or- hc...@well.com Eastwind Associates P.O.

Web forwarding in BIND

Re: Web forwarding in BIND
Heh, thanks for the humor. I'm used to having control over both Web server and DNS server and the way I normally handle these things is via an Apache virtual host configuration. However, I'm under pressure to lose control of DNS and hand it over to a company like Go Daddy or Network Solutions where you can pay to have a domain name point to a specific URL. Maybe this question should change to learning how these companies do that sort of thing. - Hoover Chanhc...@mail.ewind.com -or- hc...@well.com Eastwind Associates P.O.

You'll have better luck looking for information on how to spin straw into gold. What you want will need to be handled within the webserver itself. -B ___ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
