We are doing virtual hosting with LISTSERV 1.8d on Solaris. We are using Apache for web service and sendmail for SMTP service. Based on our experience, it appears there are three key elements to successful implementation of virtual hosting on a LISTSERV server. 1. DNS - You must an A record for the virtual host name, in order to ensure that the host name on outbound mail is not rewritten by your SMTP service. You may want to add an MX record. It should not be necessary, however, some sites refuse mail from hosts and domains which do not have an MX record. 2. Web server configuration - Another respondent covered this for IIS. 3. LISTSERV configuration - Add the virtual host name to the MYDOMAIN statement in the go.user file, then restart LISTSERV. To identify the individual lists that are to be hosted on the virtual host, add a "List-Address=" statement to the header of each list which is to be hosted on the virtual host. The List-Address statement can be used to specify the complete list address. It may also be used to specify either the user portion or the host portion of the address. In this case, you need only the host portion of the list address, i.e., the virtual host name. Example: * List-Address= www.aquascapedesigns.com List postings will use the virtual host name in the return address. Our experience indicates that, in all other aspects of LISTSERV operations, the virtual host name is ignored. The output of the "lists" command includes all lists on the server, regardless of their respective virtual host names, and there is nothing in the "lists" output to indicate that any of the lists are associated with different virtual host names. It also appears that you can use any valid virtual host name to send commands for any list on the server, or to post messages to any list on the server. L-Soft has a white paper on virtual hosting.
