You sound like you're trying very hard to avoid setting up a virtual host. Why? It's the obvious answer to your problem. And it's not hard.
You need to include the following: # The asterisk means match all interfaces. If you have a fixed IP # you'll probably want to specify it NameVirtualHost * # You may have as many virtual hosts as you like. The # first one is the one that matches a 'bare' IP <VirtualHost mysite.com> ServerAdmin [EMAIL PROTECTED] DocumentRoot /var/httpd/htdocs/mysite ServerName www.mysite.com ErrorLog logs/mysite.com_error_log CustomLog logs/mysite.com_access_log common </VirtualHost> In <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, on 09/24/2002 at 11:35 AM, Ted Hilts <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> said: >In the LAN operation the server assumes the name of the machine and >reponds to the LAN associated IP and as I said before, also probably the >ISP dynamically assigned IP.
