RE: [cobalt-users] Viewing websites before domains resolve.

["Kai Deecke" <kai@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Jim. I bought 3 domains off ozbcoz today :) I was currently
registering them through webcity.com.au for $35 a pop. I'd found places
cheaper but i liked the control panel. But when I realised you went through
the same place and that I could manage all my domains using the same control
I decided to go with you from now on. $25 bucks is cheap. Saves me $10 every
time. Good on ya!

Regards,

Kai.

if you place a line like this in httpd.conf in one of your sites (say
www.mydomain.com):

AliasMatch ^/usersites/([^/]+)(/(.*))? /home/sites/$1/web/$3

then you can see the new site (www.newdomain.com) by going to:

www.mydomain.com/usersites/www.newdomain.com
