Afaik, the problem is that Cherokee does not support the usage of a catch-all handler for virtual hostnames i.e. "*.domain.de". So if you want to answer to a request you will likely have to specify this subdomain first. If you want to be able to have multiple subdomains that users might to be able to generate you just have the choice of generating a new configuration file everytime a new subdomain is requested -- as Brian said -- or you will have to pre-generate a mass of subdomains. I know, it would be nice if Cherokee would support the usage of a catch-all handler. I personally prefer this methode even if there would be a mysql->config method. The only suggestion for your problem I can think of: You could generate CNAMES. These CNAMES are the user-generated subdomains that redirect to a special subdomain. This subdomain would redirect the request using the redirect handler to your script where you can check how the uri looks like. This obviously means you must have direct access to a nameserver. It doesn't make sense otherwise. But with eazyDNS you might have the possibility to have a php->mysql->dns solution. Maybe this helps a bit... -- Lennart Droste _______________________________________________ Cherokee mailing list [email protected] http://cherokee-project.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cherokee
