Yes, that can be done. I've done it. So it can't be hard. Look at my website under virtual servers. You'll want to install Apache. It does virtual websites very well. Depending on your situation, you may also want to run named. This depends on whether or not you'll be the primary domain name server for foo.bar and foobar.com. Each of these topics are covered at my website. cheers. > > > > Dan Langille wrote: > > > > On 15 Jan 99, at 23:57, george vagner wrote: > > > > > your website is real good, but i havent had any time to > > > go thru it and print out every page yet! > > > > Thank you. > > > > > I registered a domain and told them that my dns server is my > > > ip address they sent me a form to send back and i did > > > but they said they will send a confirmation and i never got it. > > > > > > so its not registered. how long does internic take to > > > send confirmations? > > > > Within 24 hours if memory serves. > > > > > maybe i gotta call them. > > > > Not quite yet.
