i assume you are speaking of web hosting. the reason i ask, is because we
host in house as well co-locate, but use virtual hosts with apache and
virtual ip's with IIS (M$'s definition), and trust me you will want to use
virtual hosts if you are hosting more than 30 sites. at our co-lo we are
serving up more than 477 sites on 2 ip's, so you can understand why virtual
hosting is so important. it makes maintaining zones a cake walk. apache.org
should lead you in the right direction,
and if you choose the lesser platform M$ can help. also o'reily's has a
great book to start out with.
