1 Hi Donny, everyone,
2
3 Let me float a follow-on suggestion, after thinking about some of Donny's
4 comments.
5
6 How do you feel about making /var/www the "official" Gentoo home for dynamic
7 vhosts? So we'd have something like
8
9 /var/www/<host>/public_html/
10
11 as the docroot for the virtual host.
12
13 At the same time, how would you feel if, for single-domain installs, we made
14 /var/www/localhost/public_html the default docroot, instead of /home/httpd.
15
16 If the box ever needs to move to dynamic vhosts, the admin or config-toolset
17 just has to drop in a symlink in /var/wwww to expose the site as a virtual
18 domain.
19
20 Best regards,
21 Stu
