Title: Change URL for iBay
Post by: lmcpherson on December 07, 2006, 09:16:57 PM

I have started a site jkmac.org and also want to host schoolunion96.org on the same SME server.  I installed jkmac.org in the Primary ibay, and installed Joomla in /home/e-smith/files/ibays/su96/html, which I want to use for the school union.

I use godaddy.com to point http://www.schoolunion96.org to http://www.jkmac.org/su96.

Question:  Is it possible to setup Apache to serve up http://www.schoolunion96.org -- not -- http://www.jkmac.org/su96 even though the absolute path is ibays/su96/html?

You can create a "virtual host" in the httpd server using the "domains" panel in server-manager

- add the new domain "www.schoolunion96.org"
- tell it to use the su96 ibay
- modify your DNS to send "www.schoolunion96.org" to your SME server

Here's the SME 7 manual page for domains: http://smeserver.sourceforge.net/sme70/manual#h81-9
