As some of you are aware Moniker.com charges for URL forwarding. I need to forward roughly 700+ Moniker.com hosted domains to the same url. There is not a chance I'm going to pay for this service, as it would cost $4,600+ ($6 per URL forwarding). Is there a work around for setting this up (that does not breach Moniker.com's terms of use)? My server admin skills are poor, hence the question.

I don't pay for URL forwarding at Moniker. Maybe I have some special type of account? (If so, you could certainly get the same type of account, as you have more domains than I do.)
 
If you are ok with just setting up all the dns records to point to the same IP rather than forwarding the urls, Moniker does have dns templates. You can setup 1 template with a specific set of records that all point to the same ip, then select all the domains you want pointed there, and assign them to moniker's dns, then set them all to that template. For this to work, the site you want them all to forward to should be the default page for the server, rather than the default apache test page (or whatever server you are using)
 
Thanks guys, I'll look into both options. Hopefully they'll waive the fee since I have 800+ domains hosted there.
