Name based Virtual Servers

[d11wtq]

Hi,

I asked this thread here: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-423415.html but got no response, probably because I worded it badly

I have a server, it has only *one* real external IP address. I run DNS and HTTP among other things from this server.

I'd like different domain names to tunnel onto some virtual IP's on this server when requests come in. For example, my external IP is 212.69.XX.XXX and I have domain1.com and domain2.com both resolving here (using my own DNS server).

I'd like my server to see domain1.com on eth0:0 (10.0.0.1) and domain2.com on eth0:1 (10.0.0.2) so that it can delegate services depending upon domain name. Is this possible at all? I'm hoping the fact that I'm authoratitive for the domains makes it feasible

I hope one you brain boxes out there can give me a keyword to search for or something

Thanks,

Not really possible in a generic way, TCP/IP doesn't care about the DNS name.
It is possible with some application protocols like http that include the DNS name in the TCP payload, you'll have to configure each service for that individually though, and not many protocols support it.
