#10 Re: dynamically configured mass virtual hosting Posted by cfry (128.2.xx.xx) on Fri 7 Jul 2006 at 12:35 I personally use both. I have the generic configuration for anyone who doesn't need anything special, then on top of that I add custom VirtualHost sections for anyone who needs more. The small difference is that the VirtualHost sections don't need to redefine DocumentRoot and ScriptAlias. Also, because of the generic Virtual Root and Alias settings, each VirtualHost can use ServerAlias to configure the same configuration settings for physically different websites. For example, the mailing lists for all of my domains are all simultaneously configured with: <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName lists.example.com ServerAlias lists.* RedirectMatch permanent ^/$ /mailman/listinfo RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^/mailman(/.*)?$ /cgi-bin/mailman$1 [PT,L] </VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80> ServerName lists.example.com ServerAlias lists.* RedirectMatch permanent ^/$ /mailman/listinfo RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^/mailman(/.*)?$ /cgi-bin/mailman$1 [PT,L] </VirtualHost>
