Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have a server setup to alias several IP addresses. I'm using the alias command to ifconfig through my rc.conf: -- snip -- ifconfig_xl0="inet 216.54.63.12 media 100baseTX netmask 255.255.255.192" ifconfig_xl0_alias0="inet 216.54.63.30 netmask 255.255.255.192" ifconfig_xl0_alias1="inet 216.54.63.31 netmask 255.255.255.192" -- snip -- My question is: Is this the best way to handle virtual hosting. I assign each host a new IP, setup named, sendmail(virtuser table), and Apache virtual host and it seems to work. But, from within this machine, I cannot connect to one of the virtual sites. >ping 216.54.63.30 PING 216.54.63.30 (216.54.63.30): 56 data bytes ^C --- 216.54.63.30 ping statistics --- 5 packets transmitted, 0 packets recieved, 100% packet loss > Do I need to configure some internal routing?
