If a URL with only a machine name is specified (for example, http://scunk/Building2/) the default domain name of the server is not added before VirtualHost sections are searched. This results in a number of errors, the most visible occuring with Aliases For example, <VirtualHost scunk.pdd.3com.com> ServerRoot /usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs Alias /Building2/ /usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/Projects/Building2/ </VirtualHost> with the above URL does not map correctly but returns a 404 error (as .../htdocs/Building2/ does not exist) >How-To-Repeat: See above >Fix: Adding ServerAlias machine to each <VirtualHost machine.dom.ain> section will fix this But seems something of a nasty hack! %0 >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
