I'd call the original config wrong, as it had a virtual host and main server pointing to the same IP address. The fix that he did is fine, or he could have changed the main ServerName to olive.pcug.co.uk. Apache's working exactly as it's supposed to, therefore, it's just your configuration that was a bit screwed up. -- ________________________________________________________________________ Alexei Kosut URL: http://www.nueva.pvt.k12.ca.us/~akosut/ Lefler on IRC, DALnet
