need help in making SUBDOMAIN in iis 5.1 in XP pro

[muttley]

I have TZO that forwards wildcards *.advancedhelp.org to my dynamic ip address. I need to get this wildcard figured out for example service.advancedhelp.org
Help would be appreciated.
I searched microsoft knowledgebase and all it did was explain what subdomain was.
I contacted TZO and they said with wildcard enabled a web server should do it, however I don't know if iis 5.1 will do it. I think that Apache web server will do it but I would like for now to use iis 5.1.
I have put in a help request to microsoft.

I'm not sure that iis 5.1 in xp pro even supports subdomains. In order to use subdomains in iis, you have to use host headers which only comes on the server versions of iis. Then again, i've never played with xp pro iis 5.1. However, if you can run subdomains in xp pro, it should look something like this: Host Headers: Running a Subdomain on 1 IP Address
