I've spent the last two days trying to figure out a sane way to do this and I still can't make routes.py work for domains Please take a look here (http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/msg/ 8616fc8bfc9c05a3). Are routes.py not working for domains? I think more examples are needed for mapping with domains.
