point all subdomains to main domain

[mdbbe]

Hi,

My host uses DirectAdmin and I have access to the user level. I want all subdomains to be parsed by the same script (the one in the www).

I remembered this example from a long time ago: http://thisisthesubdomain.isgay.com

You can replace the subdomain with anything and the same script will always get the request.

I need the same functionality (but for something more serious ).

How can I do this?

Thank you

You want wildcard subdomains.

Hello,

I rented a VPS so I have admin access on my machine and followed following guide to add wildcard dns: http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=127

It doesn't seem to work. I tried rebooting apache and named, but it stays the same.

The domain name is: http://www.trouwwebsite.com

(wierd thing, test.trouwwebsite.com does work)

Any suggestions?

Thank you,

Maarten

Any suggestions?

Yes. Give us one that does NOT work. We cannot help you with ones that DO work.

Anything else doesn't work...

http://abc.trouwwebsite.com
http://somthingelse.trouwwebsite.com
http://whaterver.trouwwebsite.com

Those 3 DO work.

Wierd.

I get 'x.trouwwebsite.com could not be found. Please check the name and try again.' on every single one of them

What do you get?

I get the word "index".

Wierd.

I get 'x.trouwwebsite.com could not be found. Please check the name and try again.' on every single one of them

What do you get?

I get the word "index" on all of them. If you're on a windows-based machine, do this:

Start >> Run
Type in "ipconfig /flushdns"
Press OK

Then try viewing those three URLs again.
