Hi all, I am using subdomainfu plugin for subdomain in my project.I can get the subdomain in the url with ''current_subdomain''. But for subdomain to be accepted by my browser I need to change the / etc/hosts : 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.0.1 subdomain1.localhost 127.0.0.1 subdomain2.localhost This way I will need to enter subdomain3,subdomain4..... which I can''t do for every user that creates account in my project.I found that I can''t use 127.0.0.1 *.localhost. Maybe I am missing something here.Can you suggest me the solution.I am using webrick server to host my project. Thanks , Prabesh Shrestha

But when you go to production, you can modify your httpd.conf. Ryan has an excellant screencast on this. Have a look at that. But a word of warning, I did create an application using subdomainfu and permalink plugins. The performance was too slow. it could be because i was checking a subdomain against multiple tables. -- Posted via ruby-forum.com.
Thanks for the reply. I had hosted my application on Godaddy and I changed the A name there and now my subdomains are working all fine. I actually didn''t needed subdomainfu for my purpose.I had to get the name of subdoman and I used request.subdomains(1) for that.

Hypothetically, I believe you could configure a local DNS server to redirect *.localhost to your ruby server. I''m not positive though.
