I would like to use different wildcards for different internal services, for example: ftp.mydomain.com -> http://mydomain.com:21 gameserver.mydomain.com -> http://mydomain.com:10000 How do I set that up? |

The problem is, DNS is for name resolution to an IP address only and is not related to ports, protocols, URLs, speed or connectivity. A port must always be (implictly or explicity) specified when the connection is established, and at this point the DNS lookup is already over and gone. Your best bet would be to use a WebHop redirection, but as of its nature, this works only with target URLs which can be used in a browser, i.e. HTTP/HTTPS/FTP protocol based, and only with source URLs with HTTP as protocol. It does not work with any other type of client not being able to process browser URLs, such like (real!) FTP, e-mail, news clients. Also, for the sake of clarity, I do not see why you said "wildcard", because you rather seem to mean subdomain. |
