[SLUG] Virtual hosts and PHP4 safe_mode
Hi, Just wondering if anybody on the list uses PHP's safe_mode directive. It seems to be the only viable solution to keeping people's noses out of each other's business in a virtual host environment, but it seems like it might break a lot of commonly-used scripts. Any good or bad experiences? Matthew. -- 0419 242 316 ... (02) 6658 1607 -- Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.

[SLUG] Virtual Hosts
Hi All, My IP registrar support me to have wildcards in my url and all those will be pointed to one IP address. I have apache set to run virtual hosts. My virtual hosts at the moment are www.mydomain.com.au and me.mydomain.com.au. www.mydomain.com.au also has a server alias mydomain.com.au. But when I type a URL like blahblah.mydomain.com.au, it still opens www.mydomain.com.au. How can I prevent this from going there and to display an error page when anything else is typed in the wildcard location? Thanks many. ~Mahen. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug

Have a generic virtual host setup as the first one. Something like the name of the server or somesuch. What apache does is that if there's no specific virtual host entry for the particular host, it decides to use the first one that is available for that ip. -- Martin's distress was in contrast to the bitter satisfaction of some of his fellow marines as they surveyed the scene.

Setup a virtual host and use AliasMatch to redirect every request to your error page. Make it the first VirtualHost container in httpd.conf.
