Hi,

Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with doing wildcard DNS 
things. Ive seen it done in several places and I have a feeling its mostly 
been done on NT boxen but im wondering if there is any sort of solution 
people know if.....

For example, if I have a domain blah.com .... what I want to be able to do 
is, if people type in any non-mapped subdomain of this domain, it forwards 
them to a page explaining the subdomain doesnt exist...

www.blah.com -> goes to the regular website
members.blah.com -> goes to the members website
foo.blah.com -> not mapped, goes to the error page


Any suggestions ?



Chris
