Hello Everybody, I am building a site now on which I would like to be able to host a bunch of domains mapped onto individual directories. i.e. http://maindomain.com/jimbrown is the user's domain. i would then like to map http:/jimbrown to that address and have navigation work as though it was on its own server. I.e. contact.html would show up as http://jimbrown.com/contact.html and not http://maindomain.com/jimbrown/contact.html. Or would I have to do it with subdomains (as Typepad does, a dreadful system)? Is there some way to do this with a combination of CNAME and mod_rewrite? Pardon me for any errors of terminology. I am more expert on SEO and CSS than I am with Apache and server issues. Any guidance will be most welcome. If there is a good article out there on the web on these issues please point me to it. I've done a fair amount of searching and not come up with much useful. Cheers, Ronsard
You can use a combination of the DocumentRoot directive and mod_rewrite. Basically you would use DocumentRoot to say that the domain jimbrown.com was served by the physical path of maindomain.com/jimbrown. You would then use mod_rewrite to ensure that jimbrown.com always showed up in the address bar. cheers johnt
