*.mydomain.com
Hi,

I'd like to have IIS handle multiple open domains so any subdomain of a particular domain name resolves to a particular code folder, yet still works under the subdomain typed in by the user, ie;

*.domain1.com resolves to c:/web/domain1/www

*.domain2.com resolves to c:/web/domain2/www

I've gotten the DNS issues worked out. I just need IIS to know how to deal. I've started messing around with the 'default website' but this doesn't help me since it sends all non-absolutely specified websites to a single folder on the box, and I need it instead to go to the domain-specified folder.

Any advice?

Thanks

Take a look at using host headers. I think you need a server version of windows for host headers though. There is documentation in the IIS documentation online.

Yes, I was checking them out, and have a handle on how to make them work. The problem is that I have a 'default website' that is taking precendence. Can I delete this 'default website' so the individual sites will have a chance to get control?

If I'm understanding the problem, you might try putting a default.asp page in the root web with a one line code

<% response.redirect "mysubwebURL" %>

Then make sure default.asp is one of the default documents for the root web.
