I am not a DNS expert but I suspect many DNSs have to explicitly list each sub-hostname however it is clear from http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4592.txt that there is no reason why a DNS cannot be set to eg:*.hostname.comCan anybody say if DNSs operated by ISPs normally default to this? Clearly it would save much unnecessary work with minimal additional security issues.
Just give it a try. if ping abc.com and ping blog.abc.com results in the same ip address, you have a wildcard domain (*.abc.com). -- kiu --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
