Starting 2 separate servers

Good morning everyone:


I've installed SSL, with mod-ssl, on my server.

As SSL handles only IP addresses and not domain names, I need to start 2
servers:
- 1 for port 80, www.mydomain.com,
- 1 for port 443, secure.mydomain.com.
(identical IP address for both).

I found out that I need to use the IfDefine directive such as:
	<IfDefine main>
		port 80
	</IfDefine>
	<If Define secure>
		port 443
		SSLEngine on
	</IfDefine>

Then I'm supposed to start Apache by a "httpd -D main", and the second
server by "httpd -D secure".

My question is that till now, I start the server by "apachectl start", and
it looks like the open "-D" does not exist.
Could someone help me?

Thanks much.


Jean-Louis

Edit the top of the apachectl shell script to make whatever changes you 
need to the httpd command line.  You can create two scripts if you want: 
apachectlsecure apachectlnormal.

But you might want to reconsider your whole technique.  Virtual hosting 
allows one apache to serve two different websites on different ports/ip 
addresses at the same time.
