[EMAIL PROTECTED] Help apache 101

2008-03-29 Thread Minh Cao


Hi, 

I am new to the web server  please help me with
this 2 questions. 


1/  Setup the basic web server myhost.mydomain.com 
2/ Setup the virtual host www.mydomain.com 


My linux system hostname is:  myhost.mydomain.com 
IP: 1.2.3.4 
DNS:  www.mydomain.com  CNAME  myhost.mydomain.com 


Please explain this: 
If I use default DocumentRoot /var/www/html for
question #1, and use 
VirtualHost with DocumentRoot /var/www/virtual for #2,
I no longer see the index.html file from 
DocumentRoot of #1 


Question #1 does not asked to use the Virtual host. 
Can I just use the default DocumentRoot to config the
web server OR 
have to use the Virtual host ? 


Thanks 
Tam

[EMAIL PROTECTED] Help Default index.html

2008-05-01 Thread Minh Cao
Hi,

Please help explain this 2 questions.

1/

Server hostname:  myhost IP:  192.168.0.2
DocumentRoot is /var/www/html  and  index.html is default page.

The index.html displayed correctly when connect to http://myhost

But when connect http://192.168.0.2 the server NOT showing the same index.html 
page ... It looks similar as noindex.html
Why is not using the same index.html file ?

2/  Do I need to specifiy the "ServerName" in the Main parameter ?
 It's commented in htttpd.conf   #ServerName www.example.com:80
  
What's default value if I keep unchanged and any problems in feature ?


Thanks
Minh
