Hello everyone. I have a Windows 2003 Server with Apache, PHP, MySQL installed. I also use a free DNS which is www.no-ip.com . My question is that I run 1 website for my gaming clan website. The problem is that my brother plays another game and is in a clan, but wants his own website.

My url is http://thempire.sytes.net

Can I also have http://thedugg.sytes.net on the same server. How would I setup both with different folders with the index pages in them.


Edit Update: If I setup 2 DNS in Windows Server 2003 can this work as well

this is set up with subdomains. I have never configured them but here are some links that might help

Apache Site
Easy Explaination

from cross referencing I think this is what you need
in httpd.conf
CODE
<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName thempire.sytes.net
  DocumentRoot /www
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName thedugg.sytes.net/
  DocumentRoot /www/thedugg
</VirtualHost>


so the main site is in thge www directory, and thedugg is in www/thedugg as a sub folder

What you want is not sub-domains. What you need to do is use the concept of virtual hosting. It allows you to host more then one domain using the same physical machine.

Ok I have xamp and have httpd.conf open. I see where it has my default directory which looks like

DocumentRoot "/xammplite/htdocs"

where would I put the virtual Directories. Do I erase what I showed you and setup the Virtual Directory like you guys showed me.

Like this ............

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName thempire.sytes.net
DocumentRoot /xammplite/htdocs
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName thedugg.sytes.net/
DocumentRoot /xammplite/htdocs/thedugg
</VirtualHost>
