    Hi been trying to get wild card sub domain working for one domain.

    Have set dns records thus

    Code:
    A 	*.domain.com 	102.235.45.21 	0 	86400 	
	A 	domain.com. 	102.235.45.21 	0 	3600 	
	A 	mail 	102.235.45.21 	0 	3600 	
	MX 	domain.com. 	mail.domain.com. 	10 	3600 	
	NS 	domain.com. 	ns1.domain.net. 	0 	3600
    have create entry in

    /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/100-domain.com.vhost


    Code:
    <VirtualHost *:80>
      DocumentRoot /var/www/domain.com/web

    ServerName domain.com
    ServerAlias *.domain.com
    ServerAdmin [email protected]
    This should work, but does not?

    Am i missing something?

    thanks

    Hello

    Code:
    A 	*.domain.com 	102.235.45.21 	0 	86400
    I think you might have missed a "." after domain.com so dns won't respond correctly?

    Ok that seems to work for www.domain.com but not for wordpress multiuser using sub domains, may be something else as seem dns is ok now.
