RE: Question about IP addresses

[Adam Ellis <AdamE AccelGrp com>]

No, you could still have a fully functional FTP system with only 1 ip
address.  You'd just need to configure your FTP server to deliver
directories based on what the user logs in as.  For example, if I log into
ftp as Site1_Admin the ftp server automatically dumps me into
/var/www/html/Site1.  If I log in as Site2_Admin it dumps me into
/var/www/html/Site2.  One pretty easy way to handle this is to create users
with these directories as their home directory and set your FTP server up to
only allow system users to log in to see their home dir.

OK Thanks AE.

One person told me that a disadvantage of doing virtual domains would be
that I will not be able to FTP files between server and my PC like with Cute
FTP.  Is this correct?

As long as you have one public IP address you'll be able to direct all
domains to the same public IP and have Apache determine which pages to
return.  Look into Apache Virtual Hosts.

Hi,

I'm co locating my new server loaded with red hat Linux 7.2 tomorrow.  The
co lo facility tells me that I can not have one IP address for each and
every domain name unless I can justify them; and some I can justify and some
I can't.

What I'm wondering, what if anything will I lose if I set up domains under
(I guess they are called) virtual IP address, instead of assigning them a
real IP address?  Are there any advantages or dis advantages of setting up
domain names without a real IP address?

Thanks,

Dan Sabo
