You could also consider setting up a rewriter that handles the subdomain requests and forwards that request on to a controller or something like it. Then you can use one point of entry (codewise) to serve up all of your clients sites.

What you speak of in terms of a rewriter sounds exactly like what I want to do. I will actually be handling at least 125 subdomains to begin with and expanding quite a bit after that. With this in mind could you possibly give me a link or tell me what I need to google to accomplish what your talking about? I have never seen an example nor am I sure on how to begin searching for this.

 

Any insight would be appreciated

thank you

Kevin:

1) http://www.rackspace.com/apps/support/portal/1560/3820/1172
2) You probably want a subdomain URL of newfolder.myaddress.com,  and NOT www.newfolder.myaddress.com.
3) It's much easier to maintain the pattern www.myaddress.com/myfolder, if that can work.

I have a virtual web server sitting out on RackSpace
and I have been trying to figure out how to configure
the web address so that it reads as follows:

www.myaddress.com is present web address

to:

www.newfolder.myaddress.com
I am trying to duplicate this behavior so I can configure my
server to run folders for a non-profit that I am trying to help

Basically I want to install folders inside my webspace and then point
my server to them without buying web addresses for each one,
but I am not sure what I should be studing to make it
happen.

Is this DNS? Or what is it called?

Can someone redirect me to a tutorial on this subject?

thank you
Kevin
