Setting up a generic subdomain for all domains using Apache2

kopite1 · 04-28-2008, 02:46 AM

HI guys,

I have set up apache2 and have got my websites working using virtualhosts.

I want to set up a webmail subdomain on all the domains that goes to the same site.

Is there an easy way to do this or do I need to create serperate entries for each site.

here you go, the webmail.* wildcard with catch any thing that starts with webmail. and resolves to that server.

Code:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName webmail.example.com
ServerAlias webmail.*
DocumentRoot /path_to_your_webmail
</VirtualHost>
