Configure Apache Virtual Host

This article tells how to add virtual hosts on your apache server.
Generally, there are only three easy steps.

On Linux systems, take Ubuntu for example

1. Go to '/etc/apache2/sites-available/', open 'default' file, add the following lines at the bottom:

<VirtualHost *>
ServerName www.otherdomain.tld
DocumentRoot /www/otherdomain
</VirtualHost>

Then close the file.

2. Restart apache:

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

3. Open '/etc/hosts', add the following line at the top:

127.0.0.1 www.otherdomain.tld

Close the file. Open your browser, type

www.otherdomain.tld

You'll see it.
