| It can be used for load balancing servers. www1 and www2 are two servers with identical info and then Round Robin or another method is used to divide the incomming users between the two servers, and in this scenario it's not the idea that the users picks between them, www.site.com with automatically show content from www1.site.com or www2.site.com  |

 | WWW. is nothing more than an A record. An record is bacically a dns zone via a webserver and domain. It can be used for different ports and such Confiquiring a dns zone as such can prevent web filters... Ex: at work.. www.meebo.com and meebo.com are blocked www34.meebo.com isnt blocked.. and its the same website with the same IP

 | If you don't want to worry about the host naming 'www' vs 'www2', you can use a loadbalancer (lots of open source solutions out there) and put it in front of the web servers. Then, point 'www' to the loadbalancer and go from there! Curt |
