Description Dan Protich 2002-05-15 22:00:01 UTC

      When a virtual server is created and a alias for that server is pointed to same server but different directory ie
Virtual server dynip.shell-box.com
  / aliased to http://dynip.shell-box.com/cgi-bin/gnudip.cgi 
 will result in cylical link over and over untill gives up BUT if have aliased 
same virtual server dynip.shell-box.com
/ to http://sinister.shell-box.com/cgi-bin/gnudip.cgi
no error will occur but pointed to default server of apache not a virtual server

How-To-Repeat:       Default server works fine but virtual doesnt. i'm assuming that it's a patch involed to port apache2 to freebsd. came here first before apache's site.

print outof httpd.conf
<VirtualHost dynip.shell-box.com>
Alias /cgi-bin/ /usr/local/gnudip/cgi-bin/
Alias /html/ /usr/local/gnudip/html/
