A slightly off ZOPE topic and BASIC but anyway: Basic URL def: protocol://subdomain.second-level-domain. top-level-domain:port/directory/filename So you get and register a second-level -domain name such as "mysite" with a top-level-domain such as "org". Good! Now say you want to set up multiple subdomains, for example: - tarzan.mysite.org - jane.mysite.org Can these subdomains be in totally different locations hosted by different hosts? Say I have a primary site - mysite.org hosted by HOST1 Can I use HOST2 in another location to host: - tarzan.mysite.org and - jane.mysite.org ? Does HOST1 have to do something to re-route to subdomain HOST2? What about e-mail? Can I get email at HOST1 in the form - bob@mysite.org and also different email at HOST2 - bob@tarzan.mysite.org IF this is possible, it would save unnecessary domain registration and make it easy to set up additional subsites. *TIA Zopesters -Bob OConnor bob@rocnet.com
