Trying to set up Orchard Multi-Tenancy on IIS Server

I am very new to Orchard, and am having a most difficult time setting up IIS bindings. I am not proficient at IIS, and am new to web development in general.

Say I have domain1.com which is the main Orchard site (landlord). I properly set up domain2.com in the Multi-Tenant module. My DNS records on the server work properly if I have domain1.com and domain2.com as separate sites (i.e., I can type in domain1.com and see the Orchard landlord site, I can type domain2.com and see the default page used by my control panel).

I guess I am just having a hard time binding. I fiddled around with DNS settings using my servers control panel - no luck. I then tried using IIS to "bind" domain2.com to domain1.com but am pretty sure I have made a mess of it. :)

I've searched around for an answer, but nothing seems to work or otherwise I am unable to fully grasp the concept. The Orchard documentation doesn't really deal with IIS bindings (it deals with using the development machine to host the multi-tenant sites,开发者_如何学运维 but I am dealing with a live server - all my "development", such as it is, is done).

Any suggestions? Thanks.

To get bindings working for multi-tennancy working you can do one of two things.

Set a catch all domain binding: Create a site in IIS with the binding set to all unassigned IP addresses and no host name. Any domain pointing at the IP of your server will point at this site and Orchard multi-tennancy will decide which of your Orchard sites to point it at. Only one IIS site can have this setting or they will clash.

Add multiple domain bindings: In ISS create a site for bound to domain1.com, then under edit site click bindings and add a new binding for domain2.com.
