Why not just have a single wildcard DNS entry going to one IIS virtual
server, then use CF at runtime to determine which hostname was used, by
looking at CGI.HTTP_HOST?

<cfswitch expression="#CGI.HTTP_HOST#">

        <cfcase value="clientname1.mydomain.com">
        ...
        </cfcase>

        <cfcase value="clientname2.mydomain.com">
        ...
        </cfcase>

        <cfdefaultcase>
        ...
        </cfdefaultcase>

</cfswitch>
