This is a work around that allows
multiple websites to be hosted on one
IP. In my situation I am using a DNS
to point all 3 of my sites to my single IP.
I then have a default.asp page that handles
the re-direction to the proper start page
for the website requested.
The key parts:
The use of the Web_Site_#.
This is used 6 times with the only change being
the use (obviously) of the name of your website.
In my case it also included the use of three
different web types( .com, .us, and .net ).
You will notice the use of one instance where the
url does not have the "www" while the other does.
This allows web surfers to find your page with or
with out the use of the "www" in their browser.
The use of three redirect pages.
When the if statement finds a match the ASP code
redirects the browser to the proper start page for
that site. The url of the website(less the actual page address
is displayed in the surfers browser and they are none
the wiser that they were redirected.
The final else which redirects to index.htm sends the surfer
to my main IP address which has links to all three sites.
This is the page that all surfers will see if they enter
just my IP address. You can put anything in your
index.htm that you like.
My first submission so please be kind.
If you have questions or advise feel free to contact me.

be more specific...IIS5 allows
unlimited websites. The version
shipped with XP or 2k Pro only allows
one.
