I've had a few problems with this. The only way I can get it to work is:-

Site Management>(Edit Virtual Site)>Services>web>
then add other domains that you want to point at the vsite as aliases. (with
and without the hostname)

Then

Server Management>Network Services>DNS>Edit Primary Services>Add Alias
(CNAME) Record

It goes against what everyone says as some say add (A) record in place of
CNAME, but it seems to work for me.

Subject: [coba-e:14845] Site alias reflect domain?

I've had a question from a customer about adding an alias to a vsite.

Basically they'd like to use three different, unconnected domain names all
pointing toward the same vsite, and have the site honour the domain used,
rather than serving the site and changing the ULR to the 'main' site name.

Hope that makes sense!

Any pointers much appreciated.
