How can I get rid of that annoying tilda?
If you are already hosting web sites that share the same hostname, but do not use the tilda character to distinguish between top-level root content and virtual web site content, then you have a problem when you transition to SiteStak. The problem is that you have to tell your customers that their URLs are now different. http://www.isp.net/fred on the old server becomes http://www.isp.net/~fred on the SiteStak. There are two solutions to this problem. Solution 1: DNS CNAMES to the rescue The goal is to conserve on IP addresses as well as provide a solution that does not require registering domain names with the InterNIC. One such solution is to use DNS CNAMEs to create aliases for each virtual web site, but do so using a common domain such as isp.net. For example, you could create the following aliases to the same IP address: www.fred.isp.net www.mary.isp.net www.tools-r-us.isp.net You don’t need to get InterNIC involved because they share the same domain. You don’t need different IP ad
