Hi Krist: To make sure that I follow you - as an example, I would put symlink called @cgi-bin under sites-enabled and then by able to access it as http://localhost/cgi-bin/script.extension ?
No no, that is not what I mean. What Ubuntu does is split the httpd.conf in pieces, in seperate config files. The config by default includes all config files in sites_enabled. If you look in that directory you will see that it contains links to files in sites_available. You can add config files to sites_available, and then link them to sites_enabled to make sure apache includes them. This way you can extend and change the config without editing existing files, which helps preserving the changes when you upgrade. You don't have to do this, but the way choosen by the creators of Ubuntu is to have it this way. What I did is put every <virtualhost> block in its own config file. In these config files I configured for every virtual host where the docroot is, where it has to log etc... All these config files are under sites_available, and sites_enabled contains links to these files. Krist -- krist.vanbesien@xxxxxxxxx Bremgarten b.
