Hello, I am new to linux and sort of coming in the back door. We have a =
Gateway Microserver at work that we use as mail server, web server proxy =
server and samba server. This box came preconfigured. I did have to make =
some changes in the dns settings because it comes with a private set of =
IP addresses and we have a difffernt set of IP address for our LAN =
supplied by a 3rd party vendor and yet another set supplied by USWest, =
our T1 supplier. But basically the machine worked out of the box. Here =
is my problem. Gateway only give support for hosting 1 domain name on =
the server. This box uses Apache 1.3 which seems to be able to do =
virtual hosting for several domains. I plan on hosting 5 domains, none =
of which will generate much traffic.=20
Yesterday I went to /etc/admserv/conf and opened the httpd.conf file =
with pico, which is the Apache HTTP Server configuration file. I saved =
the file under a differnt name in the same directory so that if I messed =
my changes up I could go back to where I was before. I also downloaded =
the file to my Win98 machine.=20
Here is the mystery. Now if I view the contents of either the httpd.conf =
file or the http1.conf file they both have reverted to the original =
configuration as provided by gateway that doesnt even reference our =
domain, www.travelexecutives.com. What is even more confusing is that as =
fare as I can tell, Apace is still serving up the proper web page. This =
I checked by telneting to my shell account on a different server and =
viewing www.travelexecutives.com via lynnx .
So what has happened to the httpd.conf file and then ultimatley I need =
to get back to the original task of setting up the multiple virtual =
hosts. Whew
REgards,
