Hello,

I have DNS server that is redirecting traffic from wiki.mysite.com to a specific server running apache. If it's wiki.mysite.com I want to go to the wiki site hosted on that apache server. If I go to support.mysite.com I want to go to a different site on the same server.

Can I get apache to do this for me automatically or do I have to write some kind of index page that redirects accordingly?

Thanks!

Found it.

You have to create a virtual host in your /etc/apache2/httpd.conf file

NameVirtualHost <youripaddress>:80

<VirtualHost <yourip>:80>
ServerName subdomain.localhost
DocumentRoot /var/

http://www/yourfolder

</VirtualHost>

My config looks like this

NameVirtualHost 192.168.1.5:80

<VirtualHost 192.168.1.5:80>
ServerName wiki.localhost
DocumentRoot /var/lib/mediawiki1.7
</VirtualHost>

Then restart apache

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

And you're off like a prom dress.
