Andrew has mentioned the aliasing option. if you want more than one of these this is the way to go. add this to you apache conf file: Alias /site1 "/home/myaccount/webdev/site1" Alias /site2 "/home/myaccount/webdev/site2" Alias /site3 "/home/myaccount/webdev/site3" or, alternatively, a one liner with different directory structure Alias /site "/home/myaccount/webdev/site" then put your sites in /home/myaccount/webdev/site/1 /home/myaccount/webdev/site/2 /home/myaccount/webdev/site/3 and access them this way: http://192.168.0.4/site/1 http://192.168.0.4/site/2 http://192.168.0.4/site/3 On Wed, Apr 4, 2012 at 11:25 AM, Andrew Dahl <droidjd at gmail.com> wrote: > Setting /home/myaccount/webdev/site1 as the DocumentRoot would be the path > of lease resistance. > > Else, aliasing /site1/ to /home/myaccount/webdev/site1 would be another > alternative. > > -Andrew > > On Wed, Apr 4, 2012 at 11:19 AM, Olwe Bottorff <galanolwe at yahoo.com> wrote: >> >> I followed the directions here >> (http://tuxtweaks.com/2009/07/how-to-configure-apache-linux/) to set up my >> LAMP to go directly to my /home/myaccount/webdev web sites.
