To use name-based virtual hosting, you must designate the IP address (and possibly port) on the server that will be accepting requests for the hosts. This is configured using the NameVirtualHost<http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/core.html#namevirtualhost>directive. In the normal case where any and all IP addresses on the server should be used, you can use * as the argument to NameVirtualHost<http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/core.html#namevirtualhost>. If you're planning to use multiple ports (e.g. running SSL) you should add a Port to the argument, such as *:80. Note that mentioning an IP address in a NameVirtualHost<http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/core.html#namevirtualhost>directive does not automatically make the server listen to that IP address. See Setting which addresses and ports Apache uses<http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/bind.html>for more details. In addition, any IP address specified here must be associated with a network interface on the server. _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
