Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Reseller Hosting : "Web Forwarding" - How is it done?

Hi,

I run a small web hosting service and am thinking about jumping on the "free domain parking" bandwagon as a method of helping people who do not need full web hosting yet. I've seen lots of companies (most obvious of whom are register.com) who let you set up your domain so yourname.com forwards to www.geocities/whatever/3482 or whereever your home page is. I run my own Linux/Apache server but cannot figure out how they do this without having to create an Apache entry for each domain.

Anybody wanna help me out please? Is there a CGI script for free that can do this, or what? It can be either with frames (so yourname.com stayes in the address bar) or without.

Please help!! I would really love to offer this to my clients who I think would really appreciate it.

Best regards,

Sam
