Yes, at least in bind. Try 'ping kadhdash.paulmcnett.com'. This is accomplished with: *.paulmcnett.com. IN A 208.70.74.99 Note that I'm unconfortable leaving this in place (I like to explicitly handle things) so I'll probably revert it in a day or two. > I would like to have *.mydomain.com redirected to mydomain.com. > mydomain.com is hosted on a 3rd service.

Note how browsing to http://skdah.paulmcnett.com loads my default "It works" page instead of routing to my main website. In order to do that I'd need to add a ServerAlias directive in my apache config file.
