    Activate Wild Card DNS

    I was trying to reach dnforum.com by typing http://wwww.dnforum.com, but couldnt get the website. It will be a nice thing to activate the wildcards, or have some sort of 404 Page

    thats a good reminder to anyone converting traffic too - wildcard dns and 404 errors redirecting to the main page will maximise traffic from the domains.

    Not wildcard DNS servers, but a wildcard DNS entry.

    *.dnforum.com IN A 65.57.224.27

    would direct any "hostname" at dnforum.com to the IP address of his server.

    They want all subdomains typed being able to get into homepage.

    Example of website opensrs.net with no wildcard dns entry
    http://dragon.opensrs.net/
    http://what.subdomain.can.be.here.opensrs.net/

    Example of website GoDaddy.com with wildcard dns entry
    http://dragon.godaddy.com/
    http://what.subdomain.can.be.here.godaddy.com/
