    Not sure what WHM is but normally when you use DNS you can just add *.domain.com and it'll work

        do you have shell access to edit the zone file (assuming its running linux) and edit it manually like so:

        *. 14400 IN A <your ip address>

        - also make sure to increment the serial up by one and then restart or reload named service.

        ex zone file:

        ; Modified by Web Host Manager
        ; Zone File for yourdomain.com
        $TTL 14400
        @ 86400 IN SOA ns1.yourdomain.com.
        yourdomain.com.
        (
        2006042400
        86400
        7200
        3600000
        86400
        )

        yourdomain.com. 86400 IN NS ns1.yourdomain.com.
        yourdomain.com. 86400 IN NS ns2.yourdomain.com.

        yourdomain.com. 14400 IN A <your ip address>

        localhost.yourdomain.com. 14400 IN A 127.0.0.1

        yourdomain.com. 14400 IN MX 10 mail.yourdomain.com.

        mail 14400 IN A <your ip address>
        www 14400 IN CNAME yourdomain.com.
        ftp 14400 IN A <your ip address>
        ns1 14400 IN A <your ip address>
        ns2 14400 IN A <your ip address>
        *. 14400 IN A <your ip address>


        # service named restart
