Can Apache host more than one webpage?

Jestrik · 03-29-2004, 09:17 AM

I already have apache setup to host one webpage on my linux rh9 server. I have it setup so that no-ip forwards the domain to my dynamic IP. Is it possible to host another webpage on the same computer and this belong to a different domain. If so, how should I go about doing this? BTW, i'm behind a firewall so would I have to make it so the different webpage went through a different port?

Cheers for any help =)

Have you tried setting up virtual hosts?

You can have Apache serve more than one website.

There are basically three things that address the site
1. IP-address
2. service port
3. HTTP Referrer

You can set up your Apache to distinguish which site to present according to any of the three above parameters.

You could have a second site running on the same IP address and same port number if you have a different DNS name associated to it.

The function is called virtual hosts.
Now I'm on thin ice and canäthelp you more about how to set it up.
