  Subdomains Setup in IIS7 Reply Contact I have a server that has a single IP address bound to it and right now, just one domain pointed to it. What I need to do is be able to do this.... app1.mydomain.com --> should be application #1 app2.mydomain.com --> should be application #2 app3.mydomain.com --> should be application #3 I can put any of these urls into a browser and I get sent to the default IIS7 page.  We used to do this in IIS6 using Host Headers, but I can't figure out how to get this to work properly in IIS7. We don't want to do a redirect of app1.mydomain.com to www.mydomain.com/app1, we want application #1 to load and the url to remain app1.mydomain.com. All three sites are ASP.Net 3.5 web applications that actually run perfectly when we go to www.mydomain.com/app1. What am I missing here? We are running Windows Server 2008 and IIS 7.0.   Michael De Lorenzo ------------------------------- www.delorenzodesign.com ..:::.. delorenzodesign.blogspot.com

In IIS Management Console select a site, then on right side under actions select Bindings…. In the Site Bindings dialog select the http binding and click Edit… here you can set the URL for that site.

  Re: Subdomains Setup in IIS7 Reply Contact I think I'm close to figuring this out.  Do the subdomains need to be setup as "A Records" with my DNS host? What I have configured now, I think it might be working but I'm not sure, is... 4 Websites in IIS app1.mydomain.com app2.mydomain.com app3.mydomain.com Default Web Site I've edited all their bindings to be: Type: http IP Address: All Unassigned Port: 80 Host name: app#.mydomain.com  The "Default Web Site" has all the "default" settings as far as the bindings go. Does this sound correct to anyone out there? Michael De Lorenzo ------------------------------- www.delorenzodesign.com ..:::.. delorenzodesign.blogspot.com

  Re: Subdomains Setup in IIS7 Reply Contact You can do a couple things.  1) create a wildcard dns mapping pointed to a single ip address to your server, then use host-headers on each website, in your case 1 IIS site for each sub-domain 2) You can create an A record in DNS for each sub-domain pointing to an ip address hosted on your server.  Creating individual sub-domains records is more administrative overhead, but is a technical solution. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/190008  (although this applies to IIS 5, the concept is the same) Steve Schofield Windows Server MVP - IIS http://weblogs.asp.net/steveschofield http://www.IISLogs.com Log archival solution Install, Configure, Forget
