How do I URL, Alias and directory handling???

[Tore]

Hi.

 

I have a site called let say: www.mydomain.com

 

My members shall access their site using an URL like this:

 

www.mydomain.com/memberx

 

Where memberx is any valid combination of characters, numbers and hyphens.

 

My members pages will actually be on another disk than the document root....

It could be like this: /hde/mem/memberx

 

So I guess I have to use Alias to manage this...

 

Other members could have their pages on another disk like this:

/hde/mem/membery

 

Directory listing should not be possible.

 

QUESTION 1:

 

How do I configure httpd.conf file for this particular memberx so it will work as I described above?

 

QUESTION 2:

When my member eventually want a .com or .net or whatever URL as well as using the www.mydomain.com/memberx URL,

what do I have to add to the httpd.conf file to make it work like that?

That is: This particular member want to be able to access his site in two ways: 1. using www.mydomain.com/memberx URL and 2. using i.e. www.somename.com URL.

 

QUESTION 3:

How do I prevent other from hotlinking to images on all of my members sites and including my root domain www.mydomain.com?
