I'm having a problem setting up a sympa virtual host. I am using sympa 5.2.1
on RHEL4 with sendmail 8.

My server has two hostnames - name1.ourserver.com and name2.ourserver.com.
name2 is a CNAME alias. When I'm browsing name2.ourserver.com, I see the
same lists for name1.ourserver.com. I was expecting each virtual host to
have a unique set of lists. I'm not sure what is wrong with our
configuration.

Any help appreciated,
Redmond


1) my /etc/sympa.conf:
## Main robot hostname
domain name1.ourserver.com

2) My /etc/aliases:

sympa: "| /home/sympa/bin/queue address@concealed"
listmaster: "| /home/sympa/bin/queue address@concealed"
bounce+*: "| /home/sympa/bin/bouncequeue address@concealed"
sympa-request: postmaster
sympa-owner: postmaster

name2.ourserver.com-sympa: "| /home/sympa/bin/queue address@concealed"
name2.ourserver.com-listmaster: "| /home/sympa/bin/queue
address@concealed"
name2.ourserver.com-sympa-request: postmaster
name2.ourserver.com-sympa-owner: postmaster

3) my /etc/mail/virtusertable:
@name2.ourserver.com name2.ourserver.com-%1%3

4) from my /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:

<VirtualHost *:80>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
ServerName name1.ourserver.com
</VirtualHost>

FastCgiIpcDir /tmp/fastcgi
FastCgiServer /home/sympa/bin/wwsympa.fcgi -processes 3 -idle-timeout 120
FastCgiServer /home/sympa/bin/sympa_soap_server.fcgi -processes 1
ScriptAlias /sympa /home/sympa/bin/wwsympa.fcgi
ScriptAlias /sympasoap /home/sympa/bin/sympa_soap_server.fcgi


<VirtualHost *:80>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI
DocumentRoot /var/www/name2.ourserver.com
ServerName name2.ourserver.com

</VirtualHost>

<IfModule mod_fastcgi.c>

<Location /sympa>
SetHandler fastcgi-script
</Location>

<Location /sympasoap>
SetHandler fastcgi-script
</Location>

</IfModule>

5) my /home/sympa/etc/name2.ourserver.com/robot.conf file:

http_host name2.ourserver.com

## Sympa's main page URL
wwsympa_url http://name2.ourserver.com/sympa
soap_url http://name2.ourserver.com/sympasoap

## Local part of sympa email adresse
## Effective address will be [EMAIL]@[HOST]
email sympa

title Mailing Lists

## Who is able to create lists
## This parameter is a scenario, check sympa documentation about scenarios if
you want to define one
create_list public_listmaster

## Default lang (cs | de | el | en_US | fr | hu | it | ja_JP | nl | oc |
pt_BR | tr)
lang en_US

## Listmasters email list comma separated
## Sympa will associate listmaster privileges to these email addresses (mail
and web interfaces). Some error reports may also be sent to these addresses.
# was listmaster address@concealed
listmaster address@concealed

## The default maximum size (in bytes) for messages (can be re-defined for
each list)
#max_size 5242880

6) I've created /var/www/name2.ourserver.com and
/home/sympa/expl/name2.ourserver.com. I've given these directories the
appropriate permissions.
