I have a web server setup which has 5 virtual hosts and it actually does work.
However, I have two questions:
1. When ifconfig'ing the virtual hosts with the command:
ifconfig ed0 inet virtual_host_ip_addr alias
if says:
ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): File exists
Then, if I execute the same command a second time, everything seems to
work. Why doe it fail the first time?
2. Some of the virtual hosts can be ping'ed from the actual host and others
cannot. This behavior is not consistent: sometimes all can be ping'ed,
sometimes none, sometimes a few can be ping'ed. Why is this?
Thanks in advance,
