Playing with domains: virtual host

[Sebastiaan <S.Breedveld@ITS.TUDelft.NL>]

Hi,

I am trying to trick a webserver with bind. This is the situation:

- I have a domain server for sacred-key.org
- I have a webpage which is located at www.cosjoan.box.nl, which is in
fact a virtual host
- I would like configure bind so that a query www.sacred-key.org brings up
the www.cosjoan.box.nl page.

I do now that it is standardly not possible, so I tried to trick a bit.
Once I added the following two lines to my zone file:
www             IN      NS      www-dns
www-dns         IN      CNAME   ns.foo.nl.

This lets the nameserver ns.foo.nl think that the query www.sacred-key.org
was asked directly to ns.foo.nl and not via via.

This is what I had in mind:
- in the db.sacred-key zone file, redirect www to www.cosjoan.box.nl, with
the local zone file

- create a db.cosjoan.box.nl zone file
- redirecty the www query to the ns.box.nl nameserver as if it was
directly queried by www.cosjoan.box.nl.


I have tried to setup something like this, but have not succeeded yet.
Anyone willing to give this idea a thought?

Thanks in advance,
Sebastiaan

  NT is the OS of the future. The main engine is the 16-bit Subsystem
  (also called MS-DOS Subsystem). Above that, there is the windoze 95/98
  16-bit Subsystem. Anyone can see that 16+16=32, so windoze NT is a
  *real* 32-bit system.
