ServerName should specify the exact DNS name that requests are going to be made to; the leading "www" is just a reasonably common convention for naming your web servers. (Notice it's not always present in the bits of my configuration file posted a bit upthread from here; those sites work fine). > In one post there was an explination that if Apache cant find > www.ytilaer.com it will serve up the first host name in the > VirtualHost list, hence www.fireopal.org is sent in responce to both > requests.

But I think its worth a shot. If ServerName is ytilaer.org, and you request http://ytilaer.org/, you should get index.html from the directory in the corresponding VirtualHost section. There is nothing magical about "www"; it's simply a component of the name. -- David Dyer-Bennet / Welcome to the future! / dd-b at dd-b.net SF: http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/ Minicon: http://www.mnstf.org/minicon/ Photos: http://dd-b.lighthunters.net/
