virtual host

When managing web servers, setting up a default virtual host is an essential skill. This configuration allows a server to serve multiple domains or sites from a single IP address. By configuring a default virtual host, you provide a fallback site that will load if no other sites match the server request, which is particularly useful for handling unknown requests or setting up a main entry point for a server. Today, we’ll go through the steps required to set up a default virtual host on a Linux server using Bash and Apache as the web server. Before proceeding, ensure you have the following ready: 1. A Linux server running a distribution like Ubuntu, CentOS, or Debian. 2. Apache web server installed.
