1) With IIS 4.0 it is OPTIONAL whether you point to a unique IP or SHARE an
IP with an existing site and use http header info to differentiate between
site addresses.
2) Instead of a subdomain create a new ZONE for the new domain.

ideas

> 1- we are www.xyz.com and our class c is 123.456.789.0
> 2- our customer has their own domain name of ourcustomer.com
> 3- so I would assign an additional IP to my NIC in my webserver of
> 123.456.789.169 (Previously unused)
> 4- then I would open my DNS and add a subdomain of ourcustomer.com to
> xyz.com
> 5- add an a record of www for 123.456.789.169 in the ourcustomer.com
> subdomain
> 6- create a virtual server in IIS and bind it to IP 123.456.789.169
> and thats it?
