Re: [PLUG] Apache v1.3 configuration

[John Von Essen <john@essenz.com>]

I can help with the last part regarding the logging of which virthost.  
You can create a single virthost entry (foo.com), then use ServerAlias  
for all the additional domains that also point to it (foo2.com,  
foo3.com, and so on).

By default, you probably have something like this in main config for  
the "combined" log format:

LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\"  
\"%{User-Agent}i\"" combined

Well, there is a log format variable for the virthost being requested,  
Its %V. So change the LogFormat for "combined" to:

LogFormat "%V %h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\"  
\"%{User-Agent}i\"" combined

Then in your virthost directive, you just have:

CustomLog /home/user/logs/access.log combined

And thats it!
