Hostwaresupport 04-12-2010, 03:14 AM You will have to create virtualhost for that domain. You can accomplish this by editing httpd.conf. In that virtualhost, you can define various directive like DocumentRoot for your domain, error_logs file, access_logs files and so on. You can get more information on creating virtualhost in following URL http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/vhosts/examples.html ShaolinFinest 04-12-2010, 07:06 AM Thanks, I will try that. When the httpd service is started, the server is accessible to the world yes ? ibee 04-12-2010, 07:21 AM try installing plesk, it is free if you are hosting one domain instead of learning all this or use any free server management control panel like webmin. ShaolinFinest 04-12-2010, 08:04 AM Thanks for the suggestion ibee, I will try that. Right now I am just trying to acquire myself with lowerlevel server functionalty to get a feel for how it works. Once that is out of the way I will move onto higher level apps like plesk. qualityhostings 04-13-2010, 12:04 AM You can also use cPanel control panel. It is easy to setup virtual hosts using cpanel ShaolinFinest 04-13-2010, 06:54 AM Thanks. Quick question: Whats the difference between a virtualhost and BIND ? |
