Hi

I want to configure the virtual host for testing purpose whose name is say www.xyz.com. I created a user say tom now I want only he can access this website www.xyz.com no one else can access it and user tom should be able to host a site www.xyz.com on server. So now please guide how do I perform this activity. Thanks in advance

One way of doing this:
In Apache httpd.conf, you can specify virtual host blocks

<VirtualHost 192.168.1.128:443>
...
...
</VirtualHost>

In here you can specify / load ldap module (mod_ldap) or some similar
and point at an LDAP directory which contains tom's credentials (user ID and password).
