.NET Forum / .NET Framework / General / December 2005associating subdomains to .net sockets
Is there a way to associate or bind a subdomain to a tcp sockets under .net framework (vb.net / c#). I know ip address can be used when using sockets, but the problem is the ip address is shared among subdomains (limited ips supply). Iam looking for possible way to use subdomain.domain.com instead of ip address. Any inputs?? thanks What do you mean by "shared"? you can use "subdomain.domain.com" but then in order to do any network i/o you will have to query your DNS server for the server ip address. ( because sockets work only with ip addresses ) to obtain needed ip address Dns.GetHostByName("subdomain.domain.com"); ( .NET 1.1 ) or Dns.GetHostEntry("subdomain.domain.com"); ( .NET 2.0 )  SignatureVadym Stetsyak aka Vadmyst http://vadmyst.blogspot.com > Is there a way to associate or bind a subdomain to a tcp sockets under > .net [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > ip address.

That allows ONE service (W3SVC) to respond differently to browser requests depending on the Host Header sent by the client. All of the requests go to the same IP address on the same port (80). You would need to incorporate some similar mechanism in the protocol you use for the service that is listening on service port on the shared IP address. > when i say shared i meant that the box has only one ipaddress and all > subdomains share that ip.
