Global Aliasing

Configuring Apache 2.2 with server wide facilities

[quayfee]

Hi all,

I'm a bit of a noob (probably with a little knowledge being a dangerous thing) and have jsut taken on a server. What I'm aiming to do is have certain facilities, such as awstats, webmail, mailman etc installed in single locations, but then accessible from any domain on the system.

I can't seem to get Alias or Scriptalias to do what I need it to do.

Could anyone give me a shove in teh right direction or point me a a suitable tutorial, please?

TIA

Be sure that you're putting the Alias directive(s) within a suitable container in the httpd.conf file. Each Apache directive states the contexts in which it may be used, and Alias directives can be used in either server config or virtual host contexts. What that means is that you must define the alias either at the server level, or for each virtual host in httpd.conf (or conf.d).

If that's of no help, then please post more details of your current configuration, your test method, and your test results, so we can make some sense of this problem.
