Hi all, I've been trying to accomplish this for a long time. Basically, I want to be able to have a catch-all nameserver facility. IE: Any domain which has the nameservers NS1.somedomain.com, NS2.somedomain.com will forward web requests to a website of my choice. (eg: www.somedomain.com). I know I could do this running my own Nameservers, but would rather use an existing service that offers this, however haven't found anything suitable or affordable (less than hundreds of $ a month) yet. Does anyone know a service which I could use to accomplish this?? Surely it must exist. TIA...
you will not find a managed dns service offering this. you will need your own dns servers for 110% sure.
If you own the domain it's simply a matter of setting *.somedomain.com to resolve to you server's IP address. I have done this using GoDaddy's sorry excuse for a DNS admin interface and also using DynDNS's admin tools (for a paid domain, but the free version is very similar). This is a very commonly requested functionality so it's almost inconceivable that your existing nameserver provider doesn't offer it. Unless I have misunderstood your intention... maybe you could give us some example requests and results ?
