use multiple domains on one droplet/server?

Posted February 21, 2015

Is it possible to have multiple domains on one droplet/server? For example a .net domain, two .no domain ? I have searched and read some questions here, but I dont get my question answered fully. I reckon it is done by using virtual hosts, and I reckon one of the domains need to be the major domain?

Thanks in advance

Short of the long is… Drop stuff like this at the end of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

create folders for your html files / site files… mkdir /var/www/html/site1.com mkdir /var/www/html/site2com

<VirtualHost *:80> DocumentRoot “/var/www/html/site1.com” ServerName site1.com ServerAlias www.site1.com <Directory “/var/www/html/site1.com”> AllowOverride all allow from all Options +Indexes </Directory> </VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80> DocumentRoot “/var/www/html/site2.com” ServerName site2.com ServerAlias www.site2.com <Directory “/var/www/html/site2.com”> AllowOverride all allow from all Options +Indexes </Directory> </VirtualHost>
