Yes, this has been posted before... but I'm having a small problem. I have my site, example.com. I have a site in IIS with the headers www.example.com and example.com, when I view them in the web-browser it doesn't ask for a username/password. However, I have wildcarded my DNS (added a domain called * with a host of "") and now when I go to asdfasdf.example.com it asks me for a username/password. Is there anyway to get rid of that? My guess is that I need to do something with the IIS headers, but I'm not quite sure what. Any help would be great, thanks in advance.

Also, I have another question...
I have 2 servers on my LAN. One with an IP of say... 192.168.1.100 and one 192.168.1.101 (I hope that's not against the rules, they're just examples, not the true IPs). I want a sub-domain on example.com (hosted on 192.168.1.100 to route to the 192.168.1.101 (which isn't associated with any domain)... any possible way I could do that?

remove the host headers data, because
for asdfasdf, since it is not in the
host headers, iis is directing the
browser to the default site at the
same ip.

Yes, I got the sub-domain wildcard working... I had another site with a header of nothing so it was causing a conflict (should've realized that, stupid me)... Still have the question about redirecting a sub-domain to another server on the same LAN

redirecting a sub-domain to another server on the same LAN

why would you want to? just point the dns directly at it.
this will not conflict with your wildcard entry.
