Pound configuration

Hi Guys any help would be good. Im having a problem with a pound configuration

I have 3 sites running in the backend on 2 servers.

My problem is I can't seem to get pound to redirect by hostname properly for one of the domains

if I go to site1.com no problem
If I got to site2.com.au, no problem
If I go to site2.com it goes to site1 ??

My config:

Code:

ListenHTTP

        Address 0.0.0.0

        Port    80



        ## allow rpc

        xHTTP 4



        Service

                HeadRequire "Host: *.*site1.com.au.*"

                BackEnd

                        Address 192.168.0.20

                        Port    80

                End

        End



        Service

                HeadRequire "Host: *.*site2.com.au.*"

                Backend

                      Address 192.168.0.50

                      Port    80

                End

        End





        Service

                HeadRequire "Host: *.*site2.com.*"

                Backend

                      Address 192.168.0.50

                      Port    80

                End

        End



        

End

Well I finally figured it out so I though I would update this for anyone interested.

It was a ( extremely frustrating ) DNS Issue. Site2.com DNS was pointing to site1.com.au because they are hosted on the same IP.
For some reason ( a TCP/IP expert might be able to explain ) even though it resolved the IP address, somewhere in the headers ( im guessing ) it put site1 not site2.

My DNS provider did not even have an option to check or change this because of their screwy system so I changed the nameservers to my own and hosted site2 myself.

Then added the ip rather than site1 to resolve its DNS and hey presto.
