[Zope] Domain Name HOW TO

[Robert O'Connor]

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.
