[QUOTE="Michael Morris, post: 2328814, member: 87"] I'm trying to get some subdomains working on a linux server at work. Once I figure this out there I'll probably use this same technique here someday. Some help from our other technically savvy users would be appreciated - I'm going to continue to hunt on google of course while I wait. Anyway, my company machine is hosting a set of pages for the local city government and it's departments. I am to set them up as follows [url]www.williamsburgky.com[/url] <-- Main page, tourism pages police.williamsburgky.com <-- Police page firedept.williamsburgky.com <-- Fire Dept page cityhall.williamsburgky.com <-- City Hall.
