Re: Subdomains Hosting

So, you are suggesting a directory with symbolic links. The symbolic link names are the subdomain names and they point to the user directories. Well, thank you, i didn't think of that and I'll test it.

You can do this with a flat file or DBM map that just maps superman to
"thehost", or use a symlink to get from superman to "thehost". It
should be a lot simpler to avoid the prg: map.

I don't see why you should be sweating finding yourself all the way
down to sub1 in one step, when superman->thehost seems to be the real
problem.
