This is what I got off of the Apachetoday website. I based my
configuration on this.
NameVirtualHost 192.168.2.3
<VirtualHost 192.168.2.3>
ServerName name1.siteone.com
DocumentRoot /usr/local/apache/siteone
ServerAlias name1
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost 192.168.2.3>
ServerName name2.sitetwo.com
DocumentRoot /usr/local/apache/sitetwo
ServerAlias name2
</VirtualHost>
document root is different in my case. Now is there something wrong
here. Is name1 and name2 supposed to be something I don't know about.
Siteone and two are of course my domain names.
