This might work, though it would probably be easiest to configure the "sharable" hosts outside DomTool, since I wouldn't really expect members to be adding this capability to their vhosts. /~user URLs are underused, anyway, and people who are using them tend not to care so much about details of URL appearance, since they didn't care enough to buy their own domains. Because of this, handling of userdirs doesn't seem like a particularly crucial matter. We can also use separate vhosts for traditional public_html view and the base home directory view that cclausen suggests, perhaps with some requirement to "opt in" for participation in the latter. > Here's one idea for how to configure this using DomtoolTwo-ish syntax. > It adds the "sharable" keyword for vhosts and allows the user to have > a top-level "shared vhost" instead of a domain. Since I can't resist taking this opportunity to make sure one aspect of the DomTool 2 philosophy is clear: there will be no new keywords added to support any specific configuration directive. The language is expressive enough that there shouldn't be a need. New general features are possible, though. _______________________________________________ HCoop-SysAdmin mailing list [email protected] http://hcoop.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hcoop-sysadmin
