Yup. htdig can't tell the difference between a server alias and a
virtual host. I had problems with this myself.
> allow_virtual_hosts: false
If you have virtual hosts, remove the above line.
> server_aliases: www.internettrash.com=internettrash.com \
I wrote a small script to generate a list of server aliases, that are
_not_ virtual hosts. My config includes:
server_aliases: `${config_dir}/tum.server_aliases`
and tum.server_aliases is generated by the shell script in
http://tum-index.www.ze.tu-muenchen.de/mapnames.pl
Format of tum.server_aliases:
Kinglui.fsmb.mw.tu-muenchen.de:80=www.fsmb.mw.tu-muenchen.de:80
Nathan.prakt.physik.tu-muenchen.de:80=www.prakt.physik.tu-muenchen.de:80
a12.cip.bauwesen.tu-muenchen.de:80=www.geodi.verm.tu-muenchen.de:80
