Hello Matthew,
I recall reading that ARIN was preferring the use of hostname based virtual websites over IP based, however I can't find that wording on ARIN's site.
In early 2001 a policy proposal regarding name-based web hosting gained consensus at an ARIN public policy meeting and resulted in the ratification of a new policy. In July of 2001 this policy was reviewed and overturned. ARIN does not currently have a policy that requires the use of hostname based virtual web hosting. Best Regards, Richard Jimmerson Director of Operations American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN)

Anyone have points to it?
