yum configuration in http server
 

Hello all,

I already have a yum configured in my machine(RHEL 5.2) in which the baseurl points to the file where repository is created.
But now I want to configure a http server where I can save all the packages and manually check for all RPMs on the browser
and I want to use that particular http link in my baseurl for yum configuration

Well I started with the initial steps i.e
I want this directory to be default instead of Please let me know all the places where I need to make changes for this

(here sdb1 is a folder)

I don't know where I am going wrong
But when I go to browser to check for apache configuration
but it returns with "page not found error"

Can anyonly help me with this apache configuration please

thanx buddy

I was about to ask you a question

You have mentioned a different directory in your httpd.conf file
and the browser address is different
but then something crossed my mind
I had forgot to mention the Alias name in httpd.conf

This is for all other users who might face this issue in future
Thanks again:hattip:

Need to learn apache first.
 

Regarding to APACHE server just think i am doing it first time .
Things i know about apache is that it has two types.
1-IP based Virtual Hosting
In IP Based virtualk hosting every web site has different IP address & its name should be also different.


2- Name Based Virtual Hosting
In it we have only only one IP address but we can host many web sites on it.In apachi we use "Name Based Virtual Hosting".All ISPS'S IN THE WORLD USE THIS METHOD.

So now 1st i want to configure APACHE "IP based Virtual Hosting" then "Name Based Virtual Hosting" .
Do you know these two configurations.

I am not using DNS at the moment.For apache should i fist
configure DNS then install & configre APACHE,

thanks,

You should start a new thread so that others can also help you as I have already marked the thread as solved.

and for your query, You need a DNS server but not required to manually configure any DNS server for APACHE.

You can always use Google where you can fine a bunch of tutorials regarding apache server

Best of luck.
