name based hosting

i have read that. to to be honest i found it vague as how to which config file to check to see if this is the problem

as i used the install script i would have to say it has a possible error as it install with no intervention on my part, but i could be wrong.

this is a typical conf as configured by virtualmin

ok got rid of that line and i have the same effect it goes to the first site only.

also why by default does virtual min add that line in the first place??

here is where i stand now

i did as you both selected the first site comes up the 2nd site displays the apache2-default page.

btw thanks for your help and patience

ok what part of the does put it in? as i didn't.

what else can i check to get my server to go to that correct site.

i have reinstalled debian and webmin/virtualmin using the script. same problem

i have also tried ispconfig and it worked fine just not how i want it setup.

so basically i'm still lost

BTW right after installing virtualmin

the default file starts with:

<b>[color=#0000FF]NameVirtualHost *
&lt;VirtualHost *&gt;[/color]</b>

after createing the first server it changes to

<b>[color=#0000FF]NameVirtualHost *
NameVirtualHost 192.168.0.96:80
&lt;VirtualHost *&gt;[/color]</b>
