	I don't know if something like this will work for you, but I
host a site for a domain broker (not a cybersquater). We point all
the domains he has for sale at one page which is dynamic and
includes the domain name by which it was called whenever it is
viewed. This one is PHP based but it could easily be done in Perl,
Python, ASP or whatever. The downside is that I'm not doing this 
on a Cobalt. We just add the zone files to our DNS server and
point them at one user account, which only contains this one
page. He's got a couple of hundred domain names pointed towards
this one page. Here's a couple of links so you can see it in action:

	http://steelmen.com/

	I have a 'rough' (by rough, I mean I threw it together for
someone that asked) version of the PHP source code up for
downloading at ftp://ftp.webokay.com/  

	Peace be with you,
