Perhaps someone who understand Web hosting can offer some insight into this.
I have several sites hosted at http://www.crystaltech.com. There were highly
recommended and seem pretty good. But this weekend I tried to create some
subdomains. For example, subdomain1.doma in.com and subdomain2.doma in.com.
While Crystal Tech supports this, subdomains must point to an IP address.
Therefore, it is not possible to point the subdomain to a subdirectory on
the same site, which is my preference. I can redirect is but then I end up
with a URL like subdomain1.doma in.com/subdomain1, which I don't care for.
On the other hand, GoDaddy.com allows an umlimited number of subdomains and
they can all point to subdirectories on the same site.
Is Crystal Tech lame? Or is GoDaddy unusual in this case? I just don't want
to have to purchase yet another account for a subdomain of a site that uses
only a tiny percent of the resources available to that account.
Thanks for any thoughts.

several dns names with the same subdomain, can either resolve to the same
ipaddress or the same. when you are the same, host headers (http 1.1) are
used to determine the web site.
how this is configured depends on the webserver. for example without an
addin, iis 6.0 requires a website per ipaddess or host header, and does not
support mapping to a sub folder of an existing site, though the physical
mapping can do this. with big ip, the host header can be used to pick the
backend server and folder.
ask your isp how to configure a site for host headers.

I'm sorry I'm lost. This is a shared hosting company, as indicated. My ISP
has nothing to do with this. Other than that, I didn't really understand
what you're saying.

I believe that Bruce is slightly confused between an ISP (i.e. a company
which provides an Internet connection) and a host (i.e. a company which

I was thinking of 2 possible approaches and I am a bit 'cloudly' about

Is there a way to associate or bind a subdomain to a tcp sockets under .net
framework (vb.net / c#). I know ip address can be used when using sockets,
but the problem is the ip address is shared among subdomains (limited ips
supply). Iam looking for possible way to use subdomain.domain.com instead of
ip address. Any inputs??

Hi,
Is it possible to share sessions between subdomains?
Say: the user logs in at www.company.com, and is redirected to
my.company.com. This is a different url for the same application. Can I
keep the session (so I still know WHO has logged in)?
The problem (as I see it) is the session-cookie. If that has a domain
of "www.company.com", it will not be transferred to "my.company.com".

Is there a way to communicate between iframes on different subdomains?

Could anyone give me some pointers on how to remove subdomains from a string?
For example:
If the string was bytes.com, it would stay bytes.com
If it was subdomain.bytes.com, it would become bytes.com
If it was subsubdomain.subdomain.bytes.com, it would become bytes.com
