Yes, you can host any number of sites on one IP..you just need to, as you correctly state, use Host Headers.
N DNS should point the IP address of the Web Server (or Load Balancer) for all your sites. -----Original Message----- From: Paul Swingewood [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 14 September 2004 13:56 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ cf-dev ] OT - Host Headers etc .... Hello. Is it possible to host several websites with one IP address from say BT. I have a fixed IP address to my server but I want to be able to host several websites that I have in development? - I have read that this can be done with host headers. So can I set up my webserver to have say www.a.com & www.b.com pointing to the same IP address? What about DNS? Is there something I need to do here? Is it better to use port addressing 8080 or 9080 etc ... Sorry about the ignorance here but I have never done this before.
