Mouss, your tip is almost correct if I make two changes, and Wolf, your question started this line of thought for me. I copied my existing sites-available/domain1.com to sites-available/www.domain1.com, ran a2ensite www.domain1.com, then modified sites-available/domain1.com. It points the DocumentRoot to /var/www, same as sites-available/default. There is no index.html in that directory. I then added: RedirectMatch "/(.*)" "http://www.domain1.com/$1"; What this does is take any request for domain1.com, with any additional paths, and redirects the request to http://www.domain1.com, with any additional paths from the first request appended to the URL (I think that's the correct terminology). So now if the user request is just the server's IP address, the default site returns the 404 ErrorDoc. If the request is for http://domain2.com, the same is returned. If the request is for http://www.domain2.com, /var/www/htdocs/domain2.com/index.html is returned. If the request is for http://domain1.com, it is redirected to http://www.domain1.com, with that URL then appearing in the address bar as I wanted. Finally, all requests for http://www.domain1.com return /var/www/htdocs/domain1.com/index.html. In the end, I have five sites in sites-available, with four of them linked from sites-enabled: default; default-ssl; domain1.com; domain2.com; www.domain1.com Common sense dictates that I rename my /var/www directories to /var/www/htdocs/www.domainX.com, and sites-available/domain2.com to sites-available/www.domain2.com so I can maintain the name to site mapping in my mind.
