After finishing with the Default Host step, click Next to continue with the configuration.
Virtual Hosts
In this step, the wizard displays a list of already configured virtual hosts (see
"Virtual Host Configuration"
to starting the YaST HTTP wizard, only one virtual host is present—one identical to
the default host configured in the previous step. It is marked as default with an asterisk
next to the server name.
To add a host, click Add to open a dialog in which to enter basic information about the
host. Server Identification includes the server name, server contents root
(DocumentRoot), and administrator e-mail. Server Resolution is used to determine
how a host is identified (name based or IP based). These options are explained in
"Default Host"
(page 749).
Clicking Next advances to the second part of the virtual host configuration dialog.
In part two of the virtual host configuration you can specify whether to enable CGI
scripts and which directory to use for these scripts. It is also possible to enable SSL. If
you do so, you must specify the path to the certificate as well. See
"Configuring Apache with SSL"
the Directory Index option, you can specify which file to display when the client requests
a directory (by default, index.html). Add one or more filenames (space-separated) if
you want to change this. With Enable Public HTML, the content of the users public
directories (~user/public_html/) is made available on the server under
http://www.example.com/~user.
IMPORTANT: Creating Virtual Hosts
It is not possible to add virtual hosts at will. If using name-based virtual hosts,
each hostname must be resolved on the network. If using IP-based virtual hosts,
you can assign only one host to each IP address available.
