DNS config

[davehb]

I just got a VPS from 1&1 and have spent the past week trying to figure out how to use it. I have setup a client. I have setup a domain for that client. The client has one website and nine domain names. I can't figure out how to setup the DNS so that the other eight domain names point to the one website. This has been terribly confusing. I have read the manuals and used the help, but everything "speaks" as though you already know what you're doing. I'll admit it... I don't. (I have always left the hosting up to the client. Now we're finding it would be easier to host our client's sites in a place where we don't have to worry about relying on someone else to keep things running smoothly.) The VPS is through 1&1 and their help is proving to be less than stellar. I have one IP address and want to setup name-based hosting for my clients. I just need someone that can help me figure out the confusing bits. Everything else seems pretty straight-forward. Thanks!

I was using 1&1, proved to be a pain everywhere, changed to tektonic.net, much better service and is less expensive.
