The following example show how to create a server with a different Domain name to be used to test aiCache without requiring a local change of host file Customer: We are trying to get our aiCache instance to become http://cache.xyz.com. We would like when we make a request to http://cache.xyz.com that we get back results from http://www.xyz.com aiCache Support: This can be done using the "sub_host" function. We need to modify the existing aicache.cfg aiCache Support: Make sure you have a DNS entry for cache.xyz.com that points to the aiCache IP Address. Customer: Okay DNS entry is in place to point cache.xyz.com to the IP address of the server running aiCache aiCache Support: Add "sub_hostname www.xyz.com" aiCache Support: Effectively, you'd go to it as "cache.***" but aiCache would fill against the origin with the rewritten header of "www.xyz.com" aiCache Support: This way everyone is fooled and happy as long as all the links are relative. aiCache Support: Below that, add the www back aiCache Support: "sub_hostname www.xyz.com" aiCache Support: Without the quotes aiCache Support: hostname cache.xyz.com # MUST CHANGE to your own hostname cname zyx.com.com cname www.xyz.com sub_hostname www.xyz.com Customer: and it works! Please find more details on this in the Admin guide linked on the left. |
