Hi all,

Recently I have bought (leased actually) a server.
I've set everything up, all works fine.
Now I have two problems.
I need to host web pages. A lot of them.
After adding about 50 of them by hand to httpd.conf it is getting a bit
boring. Does anyone happen to know of a automated way to add subdomains
to httpd.conf? And another problem I have is that I want all my users to
have the opportunity to create a website in their home directory.
I would be very thankful if someone could point me to some documentation
on how to do this.

Best regards,

Wilbert Smeets
Netherlands

Hi,

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/de/vhosts/mass.html
You could set the documentroot to <Directory /pathto/vhosts/*/htdocs>
either.

Thank you very much!
That is precisely the information I was looking for.
A dynamic way to make those vhosts!

Thanks,

Wilbert
