Figure 13-2. Available Addresses
Tip
If you set Apache to listen to a port under 1024, you must be root to start it. For port 1024 and above,
httpd can be started as a regular user.
13.2. Default Settings
After defining the Server Name, Webmaster email address, and Available Addresses, click
the Virtual Hosts tab and click the Edit Default Settings button. The window shown in
Figure 13-3 will appear. Configure the default settings for your Web server in this window.
If you add a virtual host, the settings you configure for the virtual host take precedence for
that virtual host. For a directive not defined within the virtual host settings, the default value
is used.
13.2.1. Site Configuration
The default values for the Directory Page Search List and Error Pages will work for most
servers. If you are unsure of these settings, do not modify them.
