Folks, could use some pointers.

I seem to remember from experience some years ago that if you were
hosting multiple domains for web hosting in a shared environment that
they needed to have individual IP numbers assigned specifically to the
domain, all sharing the interface, so things like AOL browser, etc.
would all work properly.

Am I out of date on this, or is it still common practice to assign a single
ip number to a single web hosted domain i.e.

hme0/1.2.3.1/www.test1.com
hme0/1.2.3.2/www.test2.com

...and so on and so forth?

Specifics would be helpful i.e. certain browsers, applications, etc.

Thanks.




Regards,
