Hi there!

I'm trying to figure out a structure for a hosted application that i'm working on. I've got a domain lets call it app.company.com (a sub-domain company.com of course) that is setup to redirect to my IIS 6 web server.

I would like to set up one website in IIS for each client that will use this application. And have the URL schema be like this:

app.company.com/clientA --> would point to ClientA website in IIS

app.company.com/clientB --> would point to ClientB website in IIS

Do you guys have any pointers or best practices for my scenario?
