Re: [cobalt-developers] Virtual sites sharing IP address

["Mark Baker - Cobalt Lists" <cobalt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Best thing to buy an IP address and setup parking.yourmaindomain.com (this
site has its own IP)

Put your parking page on that site, then using a single A record for each
domain point:

newdomain.com -- > Parking IP address

e.g.

www.newdomain.com --> 252.252.252.252

That works for us, hopefully it will work for you to!
