RE: name based hosting

[Bryan Lipscy <BryanL_(_at_)_DataChannel_(_dot_)_com>]

Newbie questions:

Can this be accomplished with the NAT in obsd?

If the MS software can do name-base virutal hosting, why can't obsd?

I think that Apache can also do multiple virutal hosting.

No, the OpenBSD box isn't involved at all here. Even the M$ crap should be
able to do name based virtual hosting.
