I’ve done quite a bit of reconfiguring of httpd the past few days. I split up my vhosts file to having seperate config files for each vhost. And maybe that was the trick to being able to finally being able to get SSL working for individual subdomains. Prior to this, I only had SSL on my root domain and on my SN domain, micro. I’m just liking the ability to set SSL on a subdomain now.
I also had each subdomain set up through http://url.jpope.org/kk as an A record and have moved them to being CNAME records. (was a topic that was brought up on SN, sounded like a good idea) Seems that should ease up the load for ddclient when it checks/updates the IP as needed. (also, #notetoself, go bump the TTL up on those CNAME records as they are all propagating properly.)
All in all, still learning different ways to run a webserver is fun. I can’t say that I have (or currently even know) a proper setup. Maybe some day I’ll learn that as well. :-)

@jpope I started thinking about this yesterday as I kept adding subdomain vhosts to my "default" file. I may go this rout but it seems harder to maintain.

Well, the apache setup in Arch has many config files compared to the Debian setup. Once I figured out what was where, I’ve come to like it much better. Instead of scrolling and scrolling to find the setting I want, I can just go right to it via a specific file. Setting up my separate vhosts seems to fit with that same philosophy. In the end, it’s just a matter of preference. ;)

@jpope I haven't set up apache on Arch yet. One of my goodwill boxes has a CLI-only arch system, though, maybe I should get it out.

@jezra Problem is I got no place to put it. It's in a closet now but can't operate in there.

@jonkulp how big is the computer? It might be time to start looking for ARM devices to hack

@jpope on a similar note, I was just talking with my woodworker buddy about the need for "heirloom" computer cases. less plastic, more wood.

This is quite true. I don’t see me passing on my $30 stamped metal computer case to my grandchildren… :/
-
@jpope call me old fashioned, but I like an old fashioned object fashioned into a computer case. Time to do some hacking...
-
@jezra I've seen some gorgeous ones on the web. All mine are ugly metal except the MacMIni, which is kinda pretty plasticy stuff.

@jonkulp you can't tell me that my rackmount AlphaServer isn't a work of art ;)
-
@jonkulp it may be pretty but it has an Apple logo on it. The only solution is to TAKE IT APART ;)
