Hi Doug,


Would you need to add sub.domain.org to /etc/hosts? I don't see why you
would but know I added all of my domains there. Maybe I did this for local
testing. E.g. if sub.domain.org is not in your DNS resolution then I would
have guessed you'd have gotten a network error.

Foolish idea but maybe try changing the ServerName from domain.org to
www.domain.org. And I guess you've tried reordering the entries. This is how
I thought it should work also, I'll check my setup later to verify.

Let em know as I am setting this up on one of my servers too. I'll have to
check what I set up.

Tim
