Hi guys,
I run IIS and DNS server on the same box, I can set sub-domains for my domains on DNS server, but my pages don't serve without the www. prefix, how can I set my domains to run without it? I've been reading about it, some say it has to do with LDAP, but found no direct or clear answer. ------------- :: http://www.mylittlehost.com/ - www.mylittlehost.com |

Don't know that much about DNS windows servers, but I usually create a
zone for *.example.com that picks up all sub domains that are not
explicitly defined. www is just another subdomain after all.

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me. |

Just tried that, still not working, humm, what could it be then?
Anyone here proficient on Windows DNS server, to help me sort this problem? ------------- :: http://www.mylittlehost.com/ - www.mylittlehost.com |

Though what dpyers set is what you have to do, if you create a "A Host Record" of * pointing to the same IP adress it should. ------------- http://baumannphoto.com" rel="nofollow - Blog | http://mpgtracker.com" rel="nofollow - MPG Tracker |

It makes sence, but doesn't work.
Strange. Going to read more on this. ------------- :: http://www.mylittlehost.com/ - www.mylittlehost.com |
