Nothing urgently. The pages will come up just fine (at least from
the experiments I've run). I locally added a name offsite.nwonknu.org
which mapped to your IP address, and I can see the pages just fine.
Your apache set up doesn't seem to care about the name of the server.
In the long run, if you plan on discontinuing the
knight.city.ba.k12.md.us name, you'll want to go through
all the pages and change all the references of knight.city.ba.k12.md.us
to www.baltimorecitycollege.org. This could been done with something
like:
--------cut here-------------
#!/bin/bash
myname=$(basename $0)
WEBPAGES=$(find /www -name "*.html")
TEMPFILE=$(mktemp -q /tmp/$(myname).XXXXXX)
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
echo "$0: Can't create temp file"
exit 1
fi
for WEBPAGE in $WEBPAGES
do
sed 's/knight\.city\.ba\.k12\.md\.us/www.BaltimoreCityCollege.com/g' $WEBPAGE >
$TEMPFILE
mv $TEMPFILE $WEBPAGE
done
------------end------------------
You may want something better than that, but maybe it's a starting
point?

hmm.. Sendmail 8.8.7.. I don't have this around here, but I did find
an 8.8.6 on a HPUX box I have an account on.
It looks like anything in class w will be received, so look in
sendmail.cf (probably in /etc or /etc/mail)
the one I'm looking at has these lines
Cwlocalhost
Fw-o /etc/mail/sendmail.cw
you can look for all the w class lines with
egrep "^.w" /wherever/sendmail.cf/is
vi you have one that reads
Fw-o /some/file/name
all you should have to do is add the domain name that you want to receive
mail as to that file.. then you should be able to receive mail as any
name in the file.
If not, it'll be a little tricker. If you want to send _me_(not list (too big))
a copy of your sendmail.cf, I'll take a look.
hope this helps.
