It is not clear what you mean by "the root". Do you mean the "DocumentRoot"? It's always better to use exact keywords in technical questions rather than making up your own shorthand. > For example: > www.example1.com == goes to ==> public_html/example1/, the root stays > public_html/ > www.example2.com == goes to ==> public_html/example2/, the root stays > public_html/ > www.example3.com == goes to ==> public_html/example3/, the root stays > public_html/ If you do mean DocumentRoot, then I'm confused. The DocumentRoot never changes. So now I'm beginning to think you mean the path displayed in the browser location bar... If so, you could do something like this (untested): - set up a default VH, possibly on localhost, which has "DocumentRoot /path/to/public_html" - set up one name-based VH for each site which proxies (or rewrites in proxy-mode) the request to the default server eg: # default VH Listen 127.0.0.1 <VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80> DocumentRoot /path/to/public_html </VirtualHost> # site VHs NameVirtualHost *:80 <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName www.example1.com ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1/example1/ ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1/example1/ or RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://127.0.0.1/example1/$1 [P] </VirtualHost> repeat as required... How it works: - Incoming request has Hostname = www.example1.com so is routed to the VH with that ServerName. - VH makes a second request to localhost with path /example1 - this request is routed to the default VH on localhost - default VH fetches the page and returns it to example1 VH - example1 VH passes the page back to the client Rgds, Owen Boyle Disclaimer: Any disclaimer attached to this message may be ignored. > > The root public_html contains nothing more than a .htaccess file.
