Hi,

I have two sites running on my webserver. At the moment the domain is masked so I can't have forward slash. The website in the root directory can handle dns but how can I do this: http://www.domain.com/ resolve to http://myip/subdir/ So that: http://www.domain.com/subdir2/ resolves to http://myip/subdir/subdir2/

This would be really useful to me.

Hello James,

"Virtual hosting/vhost" is a method for hosting multiple domain names on a computer using a single IP address. This allows one machine to share its resources, such as memory and processor cycles, to use its resources more efficiently.

Name-based virtual hosts use multiple host names for the same webserver IP address.
