 Posted: Fri 14 Jul '06 17:24 Post subject: Dealing with requests to the IP address |
 |
|
Hi,
I have my apache install setup (i think), and requests to my main few domains are working. However, I now want to deal with requests to
http://192.168.0.1
and redirect them to some pages on the webserver.
Anyone know what virtual site settings I need to include to deal with such requests? I tried a servername of the IP but that didnt work.
Thanks
Olly |

Sorry. What I need is to allow virtual hosts (ie www.domain1.com, domain2, domain3 etc), as well as allow for requests for NO host header, ie http://192.168.100.100.
That link was all about the mod_rewrite, kinda, and I already have that working. |

Close, but still not there. That post was about changing the host file so that, on the server, the domains pointed to the internal IP of the server rather than the external IP of the server.
Again, this is something I have already done, but doesnt cover the issue.
I want to be able to display sites when someone DOESNT specify a host header, so it has nothing to do with the hosts file.
I want to support
http://www.mydomain.com --> c:\www1
http://www.mydomain2.com --> c:\www2
AND
http://87.168.30.35 --> c:\www3 |

| If that does not fix your problem, you have to install an DNS server! |

Please stop replying to this thread.
I dont need a DNS server. I have a DNS server. I have lots of them, I have a cluster of web servers, several T1 lines.
I have lots of domains (that should be a hint that I have a DNS server somewhere). My Apache install is setup to service some of those domains.
However, theres an admin interface that needs to be accessible TO AN IP ADDRESS, NOT A HOST HEADER. This is by requirement, NOT because I dont have a DNS server.
I have virtuals for all the domains, and I need to structure one so that it can handle a request for JUST and IP without a host header. This is simple in IIS.
PLEASE can someone post something sensible before he tells me i need a lawn mower or something :S

I don't think James would suggest a lawn mower, but I will mow your grass.
