Hello When a domain name is parked (like Sedo) you can type anything after the domain name/ and you will still see a parked page. For example using a made up name: www . any parked domain.com/tweety no matter what kind of garbage i type in place of "tweety" i will still land on a parked page. But if i do that with one of my websites I get the familar "The page cannot be found" You can also see this also on ebay, www.ebay.com/s89tinhoo you still land on an ebay page. Is there a simple way to do this, and what would this process be called. Having trouble even researching it. Thanks.

Simplest method:
On 404 error page, add following code.

-----------------------------------------------------------
On 404 error page...
<html><head><META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT = "0; URL=http://www.your-domain.com/"></head><body></body></html>
<!--

-->
------------------------------------------------------------

Or, you could use redirect on .htaccess file if your site is on Linux server.

No it's not. Wildcard DNS wildcards subdomains, not pathnames.
