Russel,
Go to
http://www.tzo.com/MainPageSupport/HowToPage/HowToXitamiServerMultiDomains.h
tml. This is a tutorial with screenshots showing how to set up a virtual
domain with xitami. TZO is a DNS provider that happens to provide some
xitami help for their users. If this doesn't clear up the prob let me know
and I'll send you my config files, or I'll look at yours. I'll also need a
few more details about what errors you are getting, etc.
Jill

Subject: [Xitami] HELP - virtual DNS hosting
Ok, I am caving in and need some help here folks. This is driving me
nuts. Two years ago, on a Win98 platform I was able to get virtual hosting
to work via DNS. But now I am running a newer Xitami version on WinNT 4.0
and can't seem to get anything to work.
I am testing this all locally on private LAN - then once the sites are
working properly will deploy the server to the internet with valid
addresses. My local DNS server is set up correctly and all the PTR and A
records authenticating properly.
Could someone who is successfully doing DNS virtual hosting please send me
their xitami.cfg and their defaults.cfg files for reference. As well, could
you give me a snapshot of the directory structure of the Xitami root
directory. I think I recall how the directory structure is supposed to look
when configured correctly.
How are the virtual site directories set up. Like example A or example B,
I believe its supposed to look like Example A (which is completely logical
because it stores all of the Virtual Sites pages, files, scripts under a
single directory branch). But when I use the Virtual Host Wizard it is
creating the directories similar to Example B (which doesn't make sense
because its seperating the virtual sites files under multiple directory
branches).
Example A:
===========
/webserver
- cgi-bin
- htdocs
- ftproot
- carpe-dm
-htdocs
-cgi-bin
-ftproot
- kdralumni
-htdocs
-cgi-bin
-ftproot
Example B:
=============
/webserver
- cgi-bin
-carpe-dm
-kdralumni
- htdocs
-carpe-dm
-kdralumni
- ftproot
What the heck am I doing wrong???????????????????????????????
