Default Domain question.

Group,

I am looking for some advice as I am not sure what to serach for in google
on what I want to do.
Say I have a domain myco.com registerd and it has a website etc. But I
would also like
to register myco.ca and when someone goes to myco.ca they will be redirected
to myco.com

What do I need to do in dns to make this happen?

Would the same apply to email as well. Could it be setup such that any
email sent to me@myco.ca
would go to me@myco.com?

Thanks for your help
Scott.

Nothing, do it at the web server

Use redirects on the webserver (You are using Apache aren't you?)

You will get better advice if you ask in alt.www.webmaster group

There is ja CNAME record for that.

Just let the MX record point to your Mail-Server

That's how you do it in Bind, it should be similar in other DNS-Servers:
