[users@httpd] Virtual Hosts
Good evening,
I have 2 machines, and have just re-built one as a stand alone server,
it is running on an IP address of 192.168.0.2 host name pentium, my
machine which connects directly to it via crossover cable has an IP
address of 192.168.0.1, host name www.linuxbox.com and i am using this
machine for developing applications on and save the info to my server.
I have created 2 virtual hosts on the pentium box which is a server, but
every time I connect to the box with just the IP address 192.168.0.2 I
get the first virtual hosts index page showing in my web browser. If i
type 192.168.0.2/reays/index.html which should drill down into the
virtual host which is named reays I get a object not found? this also
happens if I replace reays with my other virtual host testbox. My hosts
file on the server contains the following hosts
192.168.0.2 pentium pentium.localdomain localhost
127.0.0.1 www.reays.com reays.localdomain localhost
127.0.0.1 www.testbox.com testbox.localdomain localhost
192.168.0.1 www.linuxbox.com
Is it that I have something wrong in my hosts file, or should I be
looking at my http.conf to change my virtual host settings?
Best Regards
'Newbie' Matt

VirtualHosts are sequentially read.
And if there is no match for VirtualHosts to distinguish which one
you're wanting to use, the first is used.
Your example:
<VirtualHost 192.168.0.2:80>
ServerName pentium.localdomain.com
...
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost 192.168.0.2:80>
ServerName reays.localdomain.com
...
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost 192.168.0.2:80>
ServerName third.localdomain.com
...
</VirtualHost>
if you request:
http://192.168.0.2/
You will get the first VirtualHost, because httpd cannot
distinguish which one you 'really' want.
The common distinguishing factor is ServerName.
so if you request:
http://reays.localdomain.com/
(and have that setup in your hosts properly to point
to your httpd server!)
You would get the second VirtualHost,
since httpd CAN distinguish which
one you 'really' wanted.
1. So you most likely need to change your VirtualHosts
to include ServerName.
2. You most likely need to change your host file to point
to pentium for each ServerName.
3. And you would most likely want to change your request
url from IP address based, to named based.
Todd.

Assuming that you are doing name-based virtual hosts, that is ;-)

Do you have valid DNS entires for your virtual hosts set up?
