There is no reason why you can't do that. The client will resolve the
name the same, whether it's a CNAME or an A. The client will still
pass the Host: line as whatever the user typed, and that header is
what the server uses to determine which VirtualHost to use.
I'm doing exactly what I described on
foo.interhack.net, which I just
created.
<VirtualHost 164.107.114.50:80>
ServerAdmin cmcurtin(a)interhack.net
DocumentRoot /usr/local/www/foo
ServerName
foo.interhack.net
CustomLog /usr/local/apache/logs/foo-access_log combined
ErrorLog logs/traicom-error_log
</VirtualHost>
What do you suggest is the problem?
