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 ?
