[users@httpd] URL Question...
I know this is not directly related to apache but I dont know where to ask this or get a anwser..
I want to be my own URL... http://www.mydomain.com
But I want the ability to do this:
http://one.mydomain.com
http://two.mydomain.com
http://three.mydomain.com
well you get the point...
I dont know if this is done on my side of with the people that i buy the domain from...
I know how to set up Virtual Host so redirecting wont be a problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Tell the people doing your DNS hosting to create a "wildcard A record"
for your domain. That way anything.mydomain.com will resolve to the IP
of your machine. Then it is just up to Apache to sort out what
subdomain was meant by using name based virtual hosts.
