Hi all
we are just playing with the ipchains redirect on Bens FAQ (BTW thanks
en) - to redirect instead of using vsredirect (Damion version below) - we
have got it working except that each virtual host defaults to the main
site - we have followed the faq exactly - anything we have missed? Does it
require a change in the virtual host directive in apache?

"If you are using the Linux 2.2 kernel an alternative arrangement using
ipchains involves establishing a rule for each virtual server, so that both
TCP and UDP packets are forwarded to a unique port number for each virtual
server. For example, your first virtual server on IP address 1.2.3.4 would
require the following commands:
# ipchains -A input --dst 1.2.3.4 --dport 80 -p tcp -j REDIRECT 8081
# ipchains -A input --dst 1.2.3.4 --dport 80 -p udp -j REDIRECT 8081
The default httpd configuation file /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf within the
virtual server must then be modified to set the Port and Listening
directives as follows:
Port 8081
Listen 8081
Please note the lack of an IP address in the 'Listen' directive. Finally,
the relevant entries for vsdredirect should be removed from /etc/rc (on the
virtual server.)
This process must be repeated for each virtual server although the chosen
HTTP port (8081 in this case) must be unique for each VS
For example, the second virtual server, with IP address 1.2.3.5 would
require the following commands (if you chose 8082 as its HTTP port) :
# ipchains -A input --dst 1.2.3.5 --dport 80 -p tcp -j REDIRECT 8082
# ipchains -A input --dst 1.2.3.5 --dport 80 -p udp -j REDIRECT 8082
And the following entries then need to be set in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
(on the VS)
Port 8082
Listen 8082
Again, the relevant entries for vsdredirect should be removed from /etc/rc."
