Try changing the servername directive to the IP address in httpd.conf, Ibelieve that will work.

This, however, feels like a kludgy workaround, and wouldn't be feasible if we had more than a couple machines that needed to access this server via ip. Is there any way to convince Apache to NOT change the IP inn the URL to the hostname? Thanks for any assistance that can be provided. ----------------------------------------------- Israel Brewster Computer Support Technician Frontier Flying Service INC. 5245 Airport Industrial Rd Fairbanks, AK 99709 ----------------------------------------------- On Jan 8, 2007, at 9:55 AM, Israel Brewster wrote:I am running into a somewhat annoying problem with Apache 1.3.29 on an OpenBSD 4.0 box. When attempting to access the server via IP address, it loads the first page fine, but after clicking a link to another page it rewrites the IP address in the URL to the hostname of the machine. This promptly results in a "server not found" error, as the hostname of the machine is not in DNS. How can I get appache to leave the URL alone? The config of this server is mostly still the default, aside from some authorization directives. Due to the network setup, simply setting the ServerName directive to the IP won't work, the problem there being that the IP the machine is accessed at is different depending on if you are accessing it from inside our network or outside. Actually, inside our network our internal DNS is set up so you can access the server by the hostname, but outside you need to use the IP (we don't want to make this server easy to find). Thank you for any assistance you can provide. ----------------------------------------------- Israel Brewster Computer Support Technician Frontier Flying Service INC. 5245 Airport Industrial Rd Fairbanks, AK 99709 ----------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
