Hello, I have been thinking about the setup I am working on and wanted to run a scenario by the list gurus. My plan is to setup a production apache server with a single IP address bound to the interface. A private non routable address will be assigned to the Apache Server. There will be two public domain names assigned to one public routable IP address. For example; vhost1.mydomain.com = 64.233.187.99 and vhost2.mydomain.com = 64.233.187.99 All requests will pass through a firewall with 64.233.187.99 bound to firewall's external interface The firewall will redirect all the requests with a destination port of 80 to the internal IP bound to the Apache server's interface. The primary purpose of the Apache server is primarily for downloads and A web browser is hardly used to get the files. My question: Some clients have scripts that check the box every 5 minutes to check for a particular file. What happens to the client who writes a script pointing to the public IP address instead of the FQDN of the one server. The VirtualHost configuration takes advantage of host headers which don't appear in a direct IP based requests. ???????? Will I have to redo my .conf file to include both IP addresses ???????????
