Yeah… I have wasted a lot of time thus far pounding away on this. I was planning on each site having it's own IP address. What do I do about the server name matching the common name though? Servers can only have one name. If I am hosting multiple sites (with separate IP addresses), how could the server name match all of them? _______________________________________________ UPHPU mailing list [email protected] http://uphpu.org/mailman/listinfo/uphpu IRC: #uphpu on irc.freenode.net
