[isp-dns] Re: How to create a dns record which only resolves TLD

["Jim McAtee" <jmcatee@...]

Yes, this is no different that creating host names such as "www.domain.com" or
"mytestsite.domain.com" or similar.  They can resolve to the same IP address or
different IP addresses, as you wish.

Of course you have to coordinate the DNS setup with your web server so that it
recognizes each host header and serves up the appropriate web page for the host
name.
