<p>In order for the server to function properly, it absolutely needs
to have two pieces of information about each virtual host: the
<p>Suppose that <code>www.example.dom</code> has address 192.0.2.1.
Then consider this configuration snippet:</p>
- <div class="example"><p><code>
- # This is a misconfiguration example, do not use on your server <br />
- <VirtualHost 192.0.2.1> <br />
- ServerAdmin webgirl@example.dom <br />

+<VirtualHost 192.0.2.1>
+ ServerAdmin webgirl@example.dom
+ DocumentRoot "/www/example"
+</VirtualHost></pre>
+
<p>This time httpd needs to use reverse DNS to find the
<code>ServerName</code> for this virtualhost. If that reverse
<p>Here is a snippet that avoids both of these problems:</p>
- <div class="example"><p><code>
- <VirtualHost 192.0.2.1> <br />
- ServerName www.example.dom <br />
- ServerAdmin webgirl@example.dom <br />
