You would have to create a custom CFX tag that links into your DNS software and adds the zone record.<br><br>Depending on what DNS software you are using something may already be available.<br><br> <p>Russ Michaels<br><a href=mailto:russ@satachi.com>russ@satachi.com</a><br><a href=

Did you ever find a solution to this? I'm trying to do a similar thing.

I saw tleish's post first and provided a way to do this without having to change the dns each time. The comments above about modifying the dns records would apply only if each user needs a different ip. If not, the wildcard dns setup mentioned in tleish's post should work for you.
