While I've read up on this and have a fairly good grasp, I'm still not (precisely) clear where the vhosts' aliases would go since I use a tunnel interface "tun0" for the external and have a dynamic IP (use Dynamic DNS host). I have the following components: 1) Web Server is the gateway and a caching name server (named & BIND ) with two NICs 2) Use Dynamic DNS service 3) Running IPFW and NATD with packet divert to tun0 4) Running Apache & Frontpage 5) Interfaces: a) rl0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255 b) rl1: flags=8843 mtu 1500 c) tun0: flags=8051 mtu 1492 inet xx.xxx.xx.xxx --> xx.xxx.xx.xxx netmask 0xffffffff 6) Also should mention the above server is used for mail too. Sendmail & qpopper which I will have to configure for vhosts too. THE MAIN QUESTION (so far): If it is possible to set up virtual hosting without a static IP as above and if so, should the aliases for each vhost go with the rl0 interface..??? Later on, I plan to move to a static IP with 6MBS DSL speeds, but more expensive. However, for now, I can make do with the slower DSL for the less-active hosts being moved over to this server at the beginning. Unfortunately, it comes with dynamic IP. Sorry the above is so long, but brief as possible. Appreciate any help on this.... thanks! .... our website: http://www.sage-one.net/ Best regards, Jack L.
