I use virtual hosts. If you look up freastro.net or =
starcraft.freastro.net, they point to the same IP address, which is =
dynamic, but in a browser, they seem to go to different places. In the =
Xitami admin screen, just click on the VHost Wizard and then press =
Restart. To edit the virtual host, click on Virtual Hosts and select the =
one you want to edit. If someone enters just your ip address, it goes to =
defaults, which is also the default for the other virtual hosts. This =
way, you can have an unlimited number of domains and subdomains on one =
ip address.

Hi Russell,
=20
Your message intrigues me. I run Xitami Pro and host about 6 sites, 4 of =
them my own. I am on a DSL line and the company I have it through will =
not let me have any more. Mabry I am wet behind the ears ( I am when it =
comes to computers) but are you having several different domaine names =
on the same IP addresses? If I am wrong. please let me know, and If you =
are, will you tell me how it is done? but in plain language.=20

Subject: [Xitami] DNS and VHosting
I am hosting about 10 different domains via DNS virtual hosting.
All my sites work properly. However, several of the sites send =
auto-emails from forms and so forth. When the email comes in, the =
Header info shows the email coming from a different web server.
Is there anyway to get the header info, using Xitami or DNS, that can =
get the correct DNS name. =20
=20
Example:
in-addr.arpa file:=20
66.172.2.44 PTR www.kdralumni.com
66.172.2.44 PTR www.swellegantvintage.com
66.172.2.44 PTR www.carpe-dm.com
66.172.2.44 PTR www.ripandburn.com
The script I am running for the auto email comes from the =
www.carpe-dm.com site, however, the email header shows the site that =
connected to the mail server was: www.kdralumni.com . Technically, you =
are only supposed to have one PTR record for an IP address (in this =
case, it was using the first one in the list), you can have many A =
records though.
Once I deleted the PTR record for kdraumni.com then the email header =
showed the connecting machine as the next one in the list: =
www.swellegantvintage.com machine. Is there another way of doing this =
or tricking the email server so no matter which site generates the form =
and subsequent email that it reflects the correct DNS name (site name) =
that it came from?
-Thanx in advance.
