I think it needs apache 1.2 or better ... Doing things this way rather than Greg's method of running a sendmail on the web server will show the web site to anyone who tries otherdomain.com unless Apache is set up for name-based software virtual servers. Running a mailer on the web server is probably easier to get running and also means users with old browsers can get to the sites (of course if they're name-based anyway that doesn't matter :) Cheers Stuart To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
