Here are some example configuration files for DomTool, our distributed configuration management system. [[TableOfContents()]] = Domains = == The Model T == If you just want to declare your domain with a `www.yourdomain` virtual host serving out of `~/public_html/` and all mail forwarded to your mailbox, use: {{{dom "yourdomain" with end;}}} == Upgraded Model T == If you like everything `dom` gives you but want to add additional configuration, include it between `with`..`end`. For instance, to add an extra web virtual host `other`: {{{dom "yourdomain" with web "other" with (* More configuration could go here *) end; end;}}} == The Do-It-Yourself == The lowest-level way of configuring a domain is the `domain` directive, which does nothing but set up basic DNS parameters and provide a space for including further directives: {{{domain "yourdomain" with (* Your directives here *) end;}}} = DNS = Here's a tour through the available DNS features. {{{domain "yourdomain" with nameserver "ns.hcoop.net"; nameserver "ns2.hcoop.net"; (* Specify two DNS servers that are authoritative for yourdomain *) dnsIP "host" "1.2.3.4"; (* Add a mapping from host.yourdomain to IP address 1.2.3.4 *) dnsMail 23 "mail.yourdomain"; (* Register mail.yourdomain as an SMTP handler for yourdomain, with priority 23 *) dnsAlias "hcoop" "hcoop.net"; (* Add an alias such that hcoop.yourdomain resolves to the same thing as hcoop.net *) dnsIP "dynamic" "5.6.7.8" where TTL = 100 end; (* Add an IP mapping with an abnormally low time-to-live of 100 *) end;}}} = Mail = {{{domain "yourdomain" with handleMail; (* HCoop should provide relaying for yourdomain *) emailAlias "user1" "user1@gmail.com"; (* Forward mail from user1@yourdomain to user1@gmail.com *) emailAlias "user2" "me"; (* Forward mail from user2@yourdomain to HCoop user me *) aliasMulti "pals" ["pal1@yahoo.com", "pal2@prodigy.com", "pal3"]; (* Forward mail from pals@yorudomain to pal1@yahoo.com, pal2@prodigy.com, and HCoop user pal3 *) aliasDrop "spamtrap"; (* Silently drop all mail to spamtrap@yourdomain *) defaultAlias "me"; (* Send all yourdomain mail that doesn't match some local user or other special rule to user me *) catchAllAlias "me"; (* Send all yourdomain mail, period, to user me *) end;}}} = Apache = == The Model T == {{{domain "yourdomain" with web "www" with (* This is a web host found at www.yourdomain. *) end; end;}}} Note that the `web` directive also adds the right DNS mapping for your virtual host. == The Do-It-Yourself == {{{domain "yourdomain" with vhost "www" with end; end;}}} This one doesn't add any DNS mappings. == Using a nonstandard web server == {{{domain "yourdomain" with web "www" where WebNodes = ["fyodor"] with end; end;}}} == Bucking all the trends == {{{domain "yourdomain" with web "www" where DocumentRoot = "/some/random/directory"; User = "me_web"; Group = "me_web"; SSL = true with end; end;}}} == Basic URL handling == {{{domain "yourdomain" with web "www" with alias "/doc" "/usr/local/doc"; (* Serve all URIs beginning in /doc out of directory /usr/local/doc *) scriptAlias "/my-script" "/var/cgi/a-program"; (* Handle requests for /my-script by calling the CGI program /var/cgi/a-program *) errorDocument "404" "not_found.html"; (* Handle HTTP error code 404 by sending file not_found.html *) end; end;}}}
