I've got a customer who wants to sell third level domains with small virtual webs and one email account. I've agreed to do it, but I'm trying to figure out the best way to provide him this service. Its unfortunate that bind doesn't support wildcards in A records (it doesn't right?) otherwise DNS configuration would be very simple. As far as I can tell apache doesn't have an way of doing regex matching in the configs (at least as would be needed for this setup) ie: *.hisdomain.com IN A www.hisdomain.com <virtual host $1.hisdomain.com> ServerName $1.hisdomain.com DocumentRoot /usr/home/user/www/$1 </VirtualHost> That would just be too easy. :( Has anyone setup something similar? How did you do it? Also -- If I setup a large number of virtual hosts in this manner (he's talking about 300 or so) I'd like to point all of his virtual hosts logs to the same file:: does this work or cause corruption of the logs? The only other way I could think of accomplishing it would be to run a seperate httpd for him, where the logs for the virtual host would be inherited from the main server, correct? <virtual host 1.hisdomain.com> ServerName 1.hisdomain.com DocumentRoot /usr/home/user/www/1 CustomLog usr/home/user/access-log combined </VirtualHost> <virtual host 2hisdomain.com> ServerName 2hisdomain.com DocumentRoot /usr/home/user/www/2 CustomLog /usr/home/user/access-log combined /VirtualHost> Hope this makes some sense.
