next section: nested in if-else module
there are 2 different type of virtualHost: <1>NameVirtualHost http://www.kcc.edu/; <2> VirtualHost 192.168.1.10: only gonna be 1 does not matter what server they looking for (recommended)
/etc/apache2$ ls: list file in that directory.
/etc/apache2$ more httpd.conf to check the infor on the web content. give two different file for 2 different server (multi homing).
ex:
outline from the DNS book (take a look at chapter 23 on web hosting). just change the name of the servername. This is where you save the certificate to.
ls mod-available/: to see module available
ls -l mods-enabled/: check enabled ssl.
ls -s: to link file to label.
