Re: Apache virtual hosting
Not really like that. Don't forget there are hosts out there which have
only one ip-address, so they must use name-based virtual hosting. For this
they must configure their only ip-address as NameVirtualHost. After this
the documentroot in srm.conf is ignored. All ip-names which the
server have, should appear in a VirtualHost section in a ServerName or
ServerAlias directive. If it does not, then the default virtualhost is
served for it, which is the first VirtualHost section parsed.
Of course if you use mass virtual hosting (vhost module), then the
operation is as it is described in its documentation.
