I am very used to IIS and it was the first web server I have used so if my question is tainted that way I’m sorry. With IIS to get x.com and y.com setup with a single IP and have traffic reach the correct site you use host headers.
At a basic level this is the same way all web servers, including the one built into Jetty, work, the terminology just differs from product to product. "Host headers" on IIS are the same thing as "virtual hosts" in most other products.
I'm assuming you want to use Jetty as your web server?
What is the Jetty version of host headers or how do I adjust the jetty.xml file to handle this kind of requests?
Got ahead of myself back there. :-) Virtual hosts are what you're after: http://docs.codehaus.org/display/JETTY/Virtual+hosts
The documentation doesn’t really touch on web hosting usages of the bundle. Is that from lack of time to get there yet or because this isn’t the best use for the bundle?
Definitely just from lack of time. We're working on this, and as others get things up and running, please feel free to help us out by contributing to the wiki.
Jordan is working on getting his installer up and running on multiple OSes as well so we will soon have about every installation/deployment option you can imagine available. :-)
A 1.0 release seems to suggest production ready. Any advise would be great.
It's definitely production ready. If I understand what you're after this will just involve configuring virtual hosts on Jetty and changing Jetty to run on port 80 if you haven't already.
Very happy to help further as needed. -- Matt Woodward [email protected] http://www.mattwoodward.com/blog Please do not send me proprietary file formats such as Word, PowerPoint, etc. as attachments. http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.html
