User from the Internet can see the 3rd vhost site now. The current access control directives are:
Order allow,deny All from all Now that Apache can route to the 3rd vhost block I edited the access controls to tighten things down and enable localhost access as: Order deny,allow Deny from all Allow from [redacted public IP subnet] 127. And it works great! The issue was more complicated than it needed to be due to my lack of understanding of DNS routing integrated with Apache (using a public IP for the alias directive). Thanks to everyone for their help! On Tue, Jun 25, 2013 at 2:05 PM, Kirk Woellert <kdwo...@gmail.com> wrote: > Starting to understand this better.
