Please provide examples... You could be entering anything and we'd not know!

I have just added a simple * A record as a test on one of my domains and it worked fine.

I then check the DNS zone was generated correctly by the next run of the daemon, and it looks like it's all OK. A quick Google confirmed that it is valid and correctly formatted.

So what are you trying?

I think he is trying to create a subdomain through the Sub Domains module under Domain Management.

nrd44, I believe you will need to make a DNS entry as fearworks has mentioned and also manually make an apache vhost entry for your domain.

You will find that setting at Override a Virtual Host Setting under Admin > Module Admin > Apache Config.

My suggestion is creating a sub-domain called "wildcard" and adjusting your vhost entry for that domain to point *.domain.com to the /wildcard_domain_com home directory you just created.
