Hi,

I have two domain names with a domain name company. I want both to point to the same IP address (my laptop running Apache Web Server) but point to a different folder so correct content can be served for each site e.g

http://jjj-golf-clubs.com

http://hhh-gardening-tips.com

Currently the A records with the domain name company for both point to the same IP address (my laptop). The support guy I spoke to said I can setup the desired folder redirection at my end by adding code to an apache config file on the laptop.

Can anyone advise me what edits I need to make?

Thankyou in advance !

please check the conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf which is included in the apache-for-windows-downloads you can get from here - it also has to be included in the conf/httpd.conf with the following line:
Code:
Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf


I think this is what you are searching for:?:

The above example is for http (unencrypted). If you want to use https you either need
a) a certificate/key with a subject-alternate-name or
b) run both virtual webservers on different ports or
c) use SNI (see https://wiki.apache.org/httpd/NameBasedSSLVHostsWithSNI).
I've never used SNI so I cannot help with this, but the other both versions are easy to do.
