[cobalt-users] website setup modification

[d.gurney@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi,

what I'd like to do is setup my RaQ so that if a browser goes to http://www.domain.tld they get the main normal site for that domain. If they access https://sub.domain.tld they will get sent to a directory inside the cgi-bin of www.domain.tld and given as the default page a perl file. This directory will be unaccesible if they are not using ssl to connect to sub.domain.tld. The perl has to be in a sub directory (i think) because it must be able to change some of the content of the website sitting under www.domain.tld . Any suggestions as to setup of the httpd.conf file ? 

i'm guessing that this could be the setup for the conf files

<VirtualHost ***.***.***.***>
ServerName www.domain.tld ServerAdmin admin ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/sites/site3/web/cgi-bin
DocumentRoot /home/sites/site3/web </VirtualHost> 



<VirtualHost ***.***.***.***> ServerName sub.domain.tld ServerAdmin admin ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/sites/site3/web/cgi-bin/sub
DocumentRoot /home/sites/site3/web/cgi-bin/sub
DirectoryIndex index.pl
</VirtualHost> 



Or will symbolic linking do the job for me ? 

any setup horror stories or suggestions very welcome.

regards,

Dave Gurney
