RE: [cobalt-users] Web forwarding - Reply to Mark Spieth



ok then create a site on the raq, then manually edit /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and use the server alias directive. See below.
 
<VirtualHost 207.166.217.91>
ServerName www.cvyb.org
ServerAdmin admin
DocumentRoot /home/sites/site6/web
ServerAlias cvyb.org childrensballet.org www.childrensballet.org akronballet.org www.akronballet.org youthballet.org

Thanks for the reply shown below.
 
However this is precisely the issue that I can't get round, I am hosting lots of sites allready with a single IP on one machine...if I had 2 IPs on one machine then no issue. BUT..
 
I am after the name based solution (sad).. so if you could be a little more specific I'd thank you a lot!
 
Time is plentiful.. customer pays for the privelige.

I am not sure why this issue is causing so much trouble. :)

First enter all the zones into your DNS. Make an A record for the domains
that all point to the same IP address.

www        IN    A    192.168.1.10

Be sure that the IP address you assign to the A record for all the domains
are the same across the domains and unused by anything other than the
domains you wish to point to 1 site.

Then create a site on the raq and assign it the ip address you chose from
above.

This is the easiest way to do it. You can use name based virtual hosting but
that would cause you to have to enter all the domain names as a server
aliase within the main site and that would lake far more time than its
worth.
