Re: sub domain

I'd like to thank both of you (Herb and Kevin) for getting me going on this.
It really helps with the brainstorming part of it. I guess when I mentioned
sub domain (the term used interchangeably between the web and the lan) it
can get all of us confused.

In any case, it worked !! Creating a new zone did it...but ... but not
technically exactly. Somehow (long story) it led me to the Advanced Web
Site Identification screen (in Subsite2 website properties) where I entered
the Host Header Value (subsite2.domainname.com). I was excited that it
worked. Long story short, just to experiment, I removed the zone, and it
still worked.

Let me know if you want the long story version of it. Anyway, I sure will
need your helps again if I ever had to deal with the zones or trusts or
sharing resources in LAN.

Thank you very much
Steve
