[00:00] 3ware raid controller seems slow on hardy 2.6.24-16-server [02:06] for some reason php pages aren't being served... When I try to go to my roundcube site I get: you have chosen to open which is a: application/x-httpd-php anyone know why this is happening? [02:15] figured it out. I had to sudo apt-get purge libapache2-mod-php5 then reinstall it! [02:29] hello [02:29] would it be safe to upgrade a production server from Gutsy to Hardy? [02:30] cellofellow: It depends a lot on the specifics of your configuration. I've had no trouble upgrading my servers. Others have. I recommend a test server to try out. This is something that's generally a good thing to have in any case. [02:30] It's got Apache, MySQL, PostgreSQL, DNSMasq (very important). [02:30] Just a home server. [02:52] anyone know anything about mod_rewrite? I'm trying to set it up for my mail server... this is my config: http://pastebin.ca/999907 [04:33] Hi guys. [04:34] I noticed the update-script warned about trying to upgrade my server using ssh? Anyone had problems? [04:35] I'm not keen on going 200km just for the fun of it. [04:35] :) [05:02] I've done several via ssh with no problems, but mine are on a different floor in the same building, so the risk level is different. [05:12] how do I apply my hostname to the prompt after edit /etc/hostname ? [05:15] osmosis: logout and login again [05:16] dthacker: i think its a matter of calling init or something [05:17] osmosis: your prompt is set by reading the hostname when you log in. If you've changed your hostname, logging in (or sourcing your .profile) will re-read the hostname and change your prompt. [05:19] dthacker: ok [05:30] I have hardy installed with likewise, and joined to a domain. How can I make it so that the admins in the domain are able to 'sudo'? [05:48] Hello everyone. I just started tinkering with AppArmor and I have a profile loaded for samba (enforcing). Does anyone know where AppArmor logs to? [06:25] Hi someone here can give me support in Spanish please??? === gouki_ is now known as gouki [08:07] Hello, I've got a Hardy powered server here that seems to have difficulty with the transfer of large files (500mb+) in either direction. It simply locks up, no errors (syslog, messages or dmesg) that I can see. Ideas on what I can check out for the failures? (PIII 450, 368mb ram, 1x10gig, 2x320gig headless). [08:08] so far the only way to get it back is powerbutton hold down or reset button. [08:10] The box wont even ping once it's locked up so keeping ssh'ed in with tail running the logs results in nothing .. [08:22] hey [08:25] moin [08:32] I cant find any guides on creating a raid 0 after ubuntu server has been installed [08:47] a: it's not automated [08:48] a: I haven't tried it myself yet, but I was looking for a way to do RAID1 last night and found that "Manual Partitioning" should include the means to set this up [08:51] Well I have ubuntu server installed and working on an old sun server, it was 4 extra disks in it that Id like to set up in raid 0 [08:51] it has* [08:53] 4? don't you want 0+1 or 5? [08:54] <_ruben> raid0 .. eeewwww [08:54] nah it wil be for very unimportant data [08:54] i just want to combine them into one giant disk, but not jbod [08:57] raid5 would be beneficial on read, penalty on write [08:58] then I only get half the space [08:59] what? [08:59] as opposed to raid 0 [08:59] If I'm not mistaken, then you're confused about raid levels [09:00] four drives at 200mb each, you'd have 600mb accessible [09:00] ohh I was thinking of something else [09:00] in raid5 configuration it's the size of the smallest drive times the number of drives minus one [09:01] Ill take raid 5 then [09:01] and unless I'm confused, I thought raid0 was number of drives divided by two [09:01] so then back to the original question, how do I create a raid 5 array inside of ubuntu server [09:02] using Manual partitioning [09:02] it's one of the installation prompts [09:02] Automatic use entire disk, Guided partitioning using available space, Manual partitioning [09:02] Well its already installed [09:02] I've done live migrations before [09:03] it's not real easy to explain [09:03] well I wouldnt be changing the disk that linux is installed on [09:03] I have 5 disks in it total, the first one is holding ubuntu [09:03] Id like to raid 5 the remaining 4 disks [09:04] hm [09:04] LVM would be far easier [09:04] lvm? [09:04] Logical Volume Management, I think [09:05] there's two well known subsystems for grouping storage devices, LVM and md [09:05] md is the oldest and is specifically for implementing raid levels as software [09:06] http://www.howinthetech.com/quick-and-dirty-linux-software-raid5/ [09:06] I found that [09:06] LVM is relatively new and does some more fancy things like migrations, labelling, and pseudo-raid [09:06] well keep in mind im pretty much brand new to linux [09:07] ah [09:07] LVM is simple to explain [09:07] btw thanks very much for helping me [09:07] if you don't like it you could always toast it and go with something else [09:07] it's good to learn about [09:07] dont like what, lvm or linux? [09:08] Volume Group comprised of several Logical volumes which are made from Physical volumes which are formatted block devices (partitions on a drive) [09:08] so, to make this simple, each of your target drives should have a single partition on the whole disk [09:09] the type I think is 0x8e, I'd have to check [09:09] well this is kind of where Im stuck [09:09] a guide tells me this: [09:09] Type $ cat /proc/diskstats. Mine were detected as /dev/hda and /dev/hdc. [09:09] To set up a partitition, run fdisk twice, each one for each disk and do the following: [09:09] $ fdisk /dev/hdX [09:09] how do I know which disks are which? that command gives me about 15 [09:10] err [09:10] it's tough to say an answer [09:10] what makes them different to you? [09:10] I have no idea [09:10] theres sda1-4 [09:10] 'fdisk -l' may give you a list as root user [09:10] sdc1-7 [09:11] bad as this sounds, I'd be sort of interested to log into your box and peek around :P [09:11] I was actually about to ask you if youd like to do that, I really am lost here [09:12] its a really old sun server, finally wiped slow solaris 10 off of it and installed ubuntu server [09:12] it's cool, make sure there's nothing important on it and privmsg me the ssh details [09:12] nothing on it whatsoever, fresh install since about 15 minutes ago [09:13] will need "apt-get install openssh-server" to get sshd running, and a portforward to 22 tcp from your border [09:13] oh I know I know, ive already been sshd into it from this pc [09:13] changing my portforwards now, 22 was forwarded to my other server [09:18] a: whenever you're ready [09:19] i sent you a pm [09:19] I lost it :( [09:19] a: are you on a registered freenode nickname? [09:19] nope [09:19] users must have a registered nickname to talk to me [09:19] oh [09:19] hold on then [09:19] keeps spam bots out of my pants. [09:20] hehe [09:24] its making me wait 2 minutes before using the register command [09:28] stil lnot getting them lucent? [10:49] why isn't there apache2-mod-security in 8.04?: [12:27] hello, I'm wondering if theres a iscsi target for ubuntu with support for scsi-3 pf (persistent reservation) [12:27] also which iscsi target is preferred ? [12:32] hi. I want to put a mail server (postfix courier) on my server, which provides a website too, and this website should send emails through the php mail() function. Will theses mails be sent without problems ? (for the moment, I only have put the original sendmail, without any other configuration.) [12:40] Postfix provides sendmail binary that should be compatible. I don't do that, but I expect it should work. [13:06] <\sh> piti, it works out of the box [13:06] <\sh> piti, postfix + php works really like a charm... [13:16] thanks === wookies is now known as adlisyakir [13:56] happy monday [14:11] I have hardy installed with likewise, and joined to a domain. How can I make it so that the admins in the domain are able to 'sudo'? [14:13] sls: you should just add them to /etc/sudoers, don't you ? [14:16] sls: ldap ? === blue-frog__ is now known as blue-frog === w8tah_ is now known as W8TAH [14:52] Ubuntu Open Week starts in 10 minutes in #ubuntu-classroom - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOpenWeek [14:53] nealmcb: Isn't it an hour and some minutes? [14:54] * nealmcb was just about to correct [14:54] make that 70 minutes :-) [14:54] Which is still, rough order of magnitude, 10 minutes. [14:54] ;-) [14:55] off by one? :-) [14:58] I wonder if anyone has kept track of the average number of people in #ubuntu-server - seems to be growing nicely over time [15:03] Since joins and departures are in the logs, with wget and some log parsing you could find out. [15:05] piti, yes but how? whats the syntax for adding a group DOMAIN\domain admins? [15:06] sls: have you lokked at this package ? >> http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/sudo-ldap [15:12] ScottK: true - you could probably get some pretty good data. And the network partitions would help correct for missing events during logging outages that would otherwise spoil the data [15:13] I am trying to upgrade our server from dapper to hardy. I have enabeled the dapper-updates and dapper-proposed repositories for main restricted and universe >> did an aotitude update, upgrade and dist-upgrade , installed update-manager-core and now that I am trying to "do-release-upgrade", I am getting a message that there is no new version of Ubuntu available [15:13] should I paste my sources.lst for someone to have a look at, maybe I am missing an important repo? [15:14] gegema: what " cat /etc/lsb-release | grep CODENAME "gives to you ? [15:15] DISTRIB_CODENAME=dapper [15:15] gegema: It was recommended that Dapper -> Hardy upgraders wait until 8.04.1 next month. Dunno if that's why update manager isn't yet aware of it. [15:16] piti, no I have not... I will. [15:17] maybe I still need the -d flag then...was assuming since hardy went live, -d was not necessary [15:19] is there a ubuntu jeos for amd64? [15:19] I had tried the awstats package on a VM hardy install which didn't work with my configuration.. and I wanted to do a dist-upgrade before going ahead and compiling awstats, just in casew [15:19] case** [15:20] ScottK: where did you see that recommendation? [15:20] IIRC it was in the release announcement. [15:20] rgl: yes [15:21] nealmcb, where should I get the iso? [15:21] oops - maybe not... [15:22] spoke too soon - http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/jeos/releases/8.04/release/ [15:22] yeah, I only found the i386 there :D [15:22] but you can use ubuntu-vm-builder to build your own custom image in a few minutes [15:23] nealmcb, neat. thx :) [15:23] there is a bug with setting locales that you can check out [15:23] you just have to set one up yourself right now [15:24] rgl: yeah - ubuntu-vm-builder is sweet [15:24] if still a bit rough around the edges [15:25] gegema: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading#head-e059d5452a24b50d09c64df48058ef2d834eb197-2 suggests do-release-upgrade -d. Did you try with the -d option? [15:40] sommer: This thread: http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/postfix/2008-04/1343.html has some discussion on Debian (and Ubuntu) specific cyrus-sasl setup stuff. It might be worth looking to see if this is correctly documented for Ubuntu. [15:42] ScottK: cool, I'll check it out [15:42] Thanks. [16:30] <_ruben> hmm .. trying to figure out how syslogd-listfiles determins if a logfile is to be rotated daily or weekly .. [16:30] _ruben: look into logrotate [16:30] _ruben: specifically the scripts in /etc/logrotate.d [16:31] <_ruben> logrotate is what im used to .. but syslog comes with its own mechanism .. then again, i might just trash those and go with logrotate as im used to using that :) [16:32] ah, sure either way... heh [16:33] <_ruben> syslogd-listfiles is nice because you dont need to keep track of which files to rotate .. downside is: no per logfile 'rules' ;) [16:33] <_ruben> ah well .. time for dinner and do some thinking in the background [16:37] <_ruben> if only my ears hadnt tricked me into thinking girlfriend was home already .. back to work for a bit then :p [17:10] Is there any reason why the "root" account does not get created when installing mysql-server?

[19:59] <_CitizenKane__> I did some googling but I turned up empty handed [20:00] I'm a nagios fan :) [20:00] if nagios was peanut butter I'd put it on a sandwhich and eat it with jelly [20:02] <_CitizenKane__> sommer: be playing with nagios, not exactly in love with configuration but it seems to be pretty solid [20:03] <_CitizenKane__> gah, been playing with nagios, i really need to get more sleep [20:05] look into opennms, that's pretty nice too [20:05] and self discovering [20:15] _CitizenKane__: nagios is the standard, takes some getting used to, but is the most scalable of any free monitoring software I've seen [20:16] OpenNMS is designed more for Enterprise-level infrastructures than nagios is [20:17] <_CitizenKane__> well, not for a huge network, mostly just need something that has good notifications when things go down, or when certain conditions, like hard drive space running out occur [20:18] either one should do that [20:19] and smaller ones will too [20:19] if it's really not a large network, and you need something up quick ... jffnms meets your requirements [20:25] <_CitizenKane__> alright, i'll look into everything, thanks for the help everyone [20:52] Apparently you do not have both the openssl binary and openssl development libraries installed. [20:52] what packages are these named ? [20:52] openssl and openssl-dev or something? [20:58] yes [20:58] apt-cache search is your friend [20:59] libssl0.9.8 and libssl-dev [20:59] or use openssl [21:00] if you want all the tools, etc [21:44] Anyone know if 7.04 supports 'multiplying' esata controllers at all? [21:55] Could someone help me configure virtual hosts on Apache? It's not intuitive for me. [22:01] Is there someone here who can help me figure out how to configure Apache virtual hosts on Ubuntu 7? [22:01] rpop: there are quite a few good articles on that on the net [22:01] http://www.devshed.com/c/a/Apache/Configuring-and-Using-Virtual-Hosts-in-Apache/ [22:01] what are you getting hung up on? [22:01] http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/vhosts/name-based.html [22:02] or for apache2, http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/vhosts/name-based.html [22:02] I've been checking several articles (it's Apache 2.0), and I'm getting hung up because when I restart Apache, it tells me VirtualHost overlaps with some other VirtualHost [22:03] After I installed Apache, httpd.conf was blank, but I understand it needs to have a config in there. The Ubuntu docs say nothing about that file though. [22:03] They tell me to edit the config in /etc/apache2/sites-available [22:04] So I set up an additional host, edited its config file, put includes in the http.conf file, and yet I still can't restart apache properly. [22:04] I'm new to Apache configs, and I can't seem to find definitive documentation. [22:05] I need something I can use with two virtual hosts, the default one, and an additional one. [22:05] http.conf is deprecated, well, to a point for apache2, you do wnat sites-available but you need to enable those sites once created using en2site [22:05] which will create symlinks to sites-enabled [22:05] see, it's confusing, because I haven't seen anywhere in the docs that httpd.conf is deprecated. so frustrating... [22:06] do I even need the includes in httpd.conf? [22:06] should it just be blank? [22:06] rpop: Read the topic, there's so much documentation there https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/server/C/ oh and ofcourse http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/ [22:07] I've been going through the Apache.org documentation. It's confusing to me, honestly. [22:07] I'm used to IIS, where I have a nice, intuitive GUI. I have to set up a site in Apache, and I've already wasted a few days trying to sort through confusing documentation. [22:09] Security and freedom isn't easy :D [22:09] * Mimi winks. [22:09] Well, I wish it were, for the sake of those of us who aren't used to Terminal and obscure Linux commands and config files. [22:09] rpop: apt-get install apache2 copy your site to /var/www is difficult? [22:10] I'm trying to configure a separate site, not use the default one. [22:10] I want to learn how to do that properly, not just blindly use what's there. [22:10] it's a little more than just a cp depending on his setup [22:10] especially if he's coming from IIS [22:11] and he is here asking questions [22:11] so, lets do our best [22:11] what I want to do is to set up a wordpress site. you wouldn't happen to know of a GUI for Apache/MySQL/PHP for Ubuntu? [22:11] I've already installed all three. [22:12] Now I need to configure the site. [22:12] Then make sure PHP can run on that site. [22:12] Then I think I can take it from there, because I've used WordPress and MySQL already. [22:14] rpop: Hang in there. The transition is painful, but at the end of it you will understand what your system is doing and be able to control it much better. [22:16] I'll try, but in the meantime, you wouldn't happen to know what this means? "[warn] VirtualHost 172.16.3.217:0 overlaps with VirtualHost 172.16.3.217:0, the first has precedence, perhaps you need a NameVirtualHost directive" [22:16] I tried the NameVirtualHost directives, and I got errors with that as well. [22:16] What gives? [22:17] Sorry. I know about mail servers, not web servers. [22:19] :-) [22:19] rpop: you have two choices, which would be named virtual hosts, or ip based virtual hosts [22:20] Right. [22:20] :0 typically indicates a port # [22:20] I don't use virtual interfaces so... :-) [22:20] ah. [22:20] dooh [22:20] so [22:20] I'm naming each site by IP [22:20] I read bad today :-D [22:21] rpop: those ip's do not appear to be globally routed [22:21] rpop: what ports are you trying to listen on? [22:21] i.e. 1918 space [22:21] Not naming ports, so it's listening on all, not just 80. Should I name them? [22:21] faulkes-, not understanding that. [22:22] I edited the hosts file to map IP addresses to host names. [22:22] Is that what you mean? [22:22] rpop: /etc/apache2/ports.conf [22:22] Okay, that lists 80 and 443 [22:22] rpop: also, you should have ip:port in your virtual host's conffiles :-) [22:22] rpop: that is entirely different, 172.16 is rfc 1918 space, it is not globally routed, so I'm assuming this is on your local lan [22:23] faulkes-, right, it is. [22:23] rpop: i.e. for the first virtual host something like this: [22:23] there are several things which must occur [22:23] NameVirtualHost *:80 [22:23] [22:23] i have two conf files under sites-available: default and blogs [22:23] 1. you must have virtual interfaces setup, i.e. eth0:1 = 172.16.x.x, eth0:1 = 172.16.x.y, etc. etc. [22:24] I do [22:24] faulkes-: that's not how I do it :-) [22:24] faulkes-: I have multiple IPs per interface instead. [22:24] I have two IPs for eth0 interface. [22:24] 2. you must setup individual config files for each site, each site should like the IP and only the IP - ignore dns / host resolution and only deal with ip's [22:25] And each of them is mapped to a host name in the host file. [22:25] okay, i'll remove host names from site configs. [22:25] hosts file on the client, or server? [22:25] i'll do it right now. [22:25] hosts file on server. [22:25] on the ubuntu machine where i have apache installed. [22:25] wait, what? [22:25] ? [22:26] the server is ubuntu, which is where the /etc/hosts file is [22:26] right, that's the file I edited to map the two IP addresses to the host name [22:27] Here's what I said there: [22:27] 172.16.3.217 lamp.domain.com lamp [22:27] 172.16.3.218 blogs.domain.com blogs [22:27] is that wrong? [22:27] domain being our domain, of course. [22:28] Okay, just replaced host names in site configs with IP addresses. [22:29] But when I restart Apache, I still get the error about VirtualHost overlapping. [22:31] well, I will be back in about 45 minutes, I have to head home [22:32] i'll probably still be here, banging my head against my desk... [22:32] i can help you with that rpop, just give me a moment to finish a few other things [22:34] Thank you! [22:34] can you send me your httpd and site config files [22:34] via paste bin or something [22:34] http://pastebin.com/ [22:34] and the last error you got when you tried to restart apache [22:38] okay, will do [22:42] Almost done pasting all the stuff, just a sec [22:44] seanh, here it is: http://pastebin.com/d6eb19fad [22:50] can you put port numbers after you ip addresses [22:52] Will do and restart Apache, then let you know what happens [22:53] can you also send the output from httpd -s [22:53] you may have to give it the full dir [22:53] what's the full directory? [22:54] /usr/local/apache2/bin/ [22:54] still getting same error on apache restart [22:54] not sure where it is on your machine, i don't have an ubuntu system up right infront of me right now to check [22:54] no such file or directory [22:55] I have /etc/apache2/ [22:55] and /var/www [22:55] that's config files only [22:55] "locate httpd" [22:55] just got a boatload of locations [22:56] most of them in /usr/share/doc [22:56] one in /usr/lib/apache2/modules/ [22:57] hold on, let me look up where it's kept [23:00] seanh: there is no httpd, only apache2 [23:01] is that what ubuntu installs it under? [23:01] i have trouble remember all this stuff, everybody does it there own way :-p [23:03] ok [23:04] rpop: apache2 -S should work [23:04] it looks like it's in /usr/sbin/apache2 [23:04] okay, it works [23:05] gives me the same virtualhost overlapping error, then lists the two virtual hosts. says syntax is OK. [23:07] is the error any more infomative? [23:08] no, same exact wording. hold on, I think there's a way to update the pastebin posting. i'll let you see it. [23:09] in reading though the config docs, i'm not sure you can do "servername #.#.#.ip" [23:10] i think it needs to be a domain [23:10] i'm still looking at that [23:10] okay, here's the new link, and the output is at the top: http://pastebin.com/d3015eab8 [23:11] faulkes- said to stick to ip addresses and to take out the domain names, that's why I did that. [23:13] Syntax: ServerName fully-qualified-domain-name[:port] [23:14] that's off of the apache webpage [23:14] okay, I'll switch it back [23:15] but I'm still getting the virtualHost overlap error. [23:22] out of curiosity, what happens if you put something like "namevirtualhost *" in the httpd.conf? [23:23] (i'm trying to replicate your setup on a machine) [23:24] i get the following additional error: NameVirtualHost *:0 has no VirtualHosts [23:25] This is the sort of thing that makes it so confusing. According to the documentation, it should be straightforward, but it isn't. I haven't touched any other config files, and yet it's still not working properly. [23:25] meh, it's one of those things that is very specific about syntax, so one little thing throws it off [23:28] i'm going to reboot the machine, just in case. [23:28] i'm using irc on a different machine, so i'll remain online here [23:29] hello, I'm wondering if theres a iscsi target for ubuntu with support for scsi-3 pf (persistent reservation) [23:29] also which iscsi target is preferred ? [23:29] anyone ? [23:30] another thing I just noticed is that the VM where Ubuntu is running has been using 100% CPU all along. [23:30] ugh. as if i didn't have enough problems. [23:32] lllegal: i'm not sure, i haven't messed with it inside ubuntu, only in esx [23:32] rpop: what's using the cpu? [23:32] rpop: "top" [23:32] have no clue [23:32] restarted it, will see if it still occurs afterwards. don't know where to look for something like Task Manager in Ubuntu. [23:34] top [23:35] or ps [23:35] you mean i should type that in terminal? [23:37] typed it, and also monitoring VM's cpu graph externally [23:37] right now, it's definitely nowhere near 100%, like it was before. [23:37] it's more like 100-300 MHz [23:38] ps aux | sort -n +2 | tail -1 [23:38] should give you the top cpu user [23:38] it's root [23:38] at 2.3% [23:38] wish i'd ran that command before restarting... [23:38] what process though? [23:39] to thr right of the date should be the process that's running [23:39] Xorg (remote desktop?) [23:39] X [23:39] the gui [23:39] i'm using TightVNC to get to it [23:39] oh [23:39] okay [23:40] well, CPU is back to normal now. [23:40] i can not for the life of me get my machine to give me the same error you're getting :-p [23:40] any more ideas about Apache? [23:40] bummer [23:40] what should i do? can I start over with Apache? [23:40] what should I do to "reset to factory settings"? :-) [23:42] you added the namevirtualhost setting right? [23:42] what does it say right now? [23:42] same error [23:43] [warn] VirtualHost 172.16.3.217:80 overlaps with VirtualHost 172.16.3.217:80, the first has precedence, perhaps you need a NameVirtualHost directive [23:43] and... [23:43] [warn] NameVirtualHost *:0 has no VirtualHosts [23:43] apache was working for me fine and I got rid of some ssl stuff now i'm having an apache issue: all I see is a white page with Index of / then below that I see Name Last Modified Size Description and nothing under there even though there are things in that directory. how do i track this down? [23:44] rpop, open up your /etc/apache2/httpd.conf and put this line in it: NameVirtualHost your ip address:80 [23:44] rpop: no, i meant what's the config set to [23:44] namevirtualserver something [23:44] i was going to say *:80 [23:44] well, you said to put in NameVirtualServer *, and that's what I did. [23:44] but, sure [23:45] i mean NameVirtualHost * [23:45] That's what it has right now [23:45] (the httpd.conf file) [23:46] rpop, try putting your ip address after NameVirtualHost followed by :80 [23:47] Okay, now I have two entries there, one for each IP address [23:47] Saving file, rebooting apache [23:48] Now getting fewer errors, but still same annoying error message: "[warn] NameVirtualHost 172.16.3.217:80 has no VirtualHosts". I get this error message twice and that's it. [23:48] you only need it for ip's that you'll be doing name based virtual hosting. not for the ones that are ip based. IE if you have a page that has it's own ip address you do it a different way [23:48] rpop, that means that you don't have any virtual hosts set to 172.16.3.217 [23:48] create one and you won't get that [23:48] I thought I did. I created them in the hosts file. Do I have to name them somewhere else? [23:49] shouldn't. did you set them to port 80? [23:49] I specified the IP addresses in the site config files as well, and set them to port 80 [23:50] i just went through that myself. I started creating individual files for each site... [23:51] so where do I specify the virtual hosts, if not in the site configs and in the hosts file? is there another place?
