Subject: OT: What a hustle to install 400-500 subdomains
Hi,
a customer wants 400-500 subdomains of one domain to access via http.
Each heading to a different base-web-root. We run virtual domains (HTTP
1.1) on one IP-adress. We have IIS 4 and NT 4.
Is there a tool, to automize the installation of one sub-domain ?
Anybody who knows how the customer could possibly could do it by himself
? Thanks.
Uwe
