[QUOTE BY= macshome] You need to setup a entry in server admin for each site.[/QUOTE]

Hi Josh,

Before I get started…THANK YOU for the GREAT Sessions you guys did at MacWorld!

I thought I did set up an entry. I entered the 4 different domain names in the SITES Tab in Server admin as seen below:

Enabled Domain Name Address Port
yes Domain1.com any 80
yes Domain2.com any 80
yes Domain3.com any 80
yes Domain4.com any 80

The Web folder PATH points to each Domain names directory:
/Library/WebServer/Documents/Domain1
/Library/WebServer/Documents/Domain2
/Library/WebServer/Documents/Domain3
/Library/WebServer/Documents/Domain4

QUESTION:
What should the IP Address (in the SITES Tab of Server Admin) be for each Domain Name? Public? Private? *?

Should the Domain names in DNS all point to the Public IP Address of the Web Server?

Domain1.com —> 68.15.14.35
Domain2.com —> 68.15.14.35
Domain3.com —> 68.15.14.35
Domain4.com —> 68.15.14.35

How does a web page request for a different Domain name on the same server magically get routed via Tiger Server to the appropriate directory for the different Domain Names? I’m baffled…it appears to be set up correctly but all requests simply go to the main or 1st entry in the SITES Tab. What am I missing here?

Thanks a million for your help!
Bill
