Gregg, thanks for the reply and the help. But this seems like it was a
topic overlooked when WSS was developed.
So there's really no way to point more than one domain at a single
sharepoint site then? That's fine for an internal network but
impractical in a hosted environment. That would mean anyone looking to
host a sharepoint site will need to either point their domain/url at
the server before they develope the site or they are going to get
stuck using some temp url like:
http://user.server.myhostingcompany.com/ or worse yet an ip based
site.
This is a real snafu for commercial hosts looking to offer sharepoint
services.
