Hi, sorry if this is the wrong section to be posting this.

I am just looking for some direction in where to start. I have 2 computers, one which I'' refer to as "Server" and the other "Main".

I am running Ubuntu FYI.

I would like to have a domain pointed to my server, then have the virtual host file re-direct the request internally across my network to a specific folder on my Main PC. This is were I store all my movies and music. I realise I could just set up a web server on the main PC. Or I could also set up FTP, but I would really liek to route the traffic through my Server.

This is what the file I am working with looks like (On my Server).

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName test.dev
ServerAlias test.dev
DocumentRoot /var/www
</VirtualHost>

This is aproxx the idea I would like to achieve.
NOTE* 192.168.0.190 is internal IP of my "Main" PC

<VirtualHost 192.168.0.190:80>
ServerName test.dev
ServerAlias test.dev
DocumentRoot /my/movie/dir
</VirtualHost>

Also, Ignore test.dev. I know it will only work internally. It will eventually be a registered domain.


So if anyone out there knows what I am trying to achieve and could tell me the name of this concept, or give me some pointers. It would be very helpful.

THANK YOU in adv!
