Apache Alias between sites
Posted: Tue Aug 28, 2012 8:56 am
I have a client who wants a WordPress blog, but for security reasons I do not want Wordpress in the same cPanel account with the client's website. The client wants the url to the blog to be mysite/blog. Since I use a LINUX VPS, I figured I could use an Apache Alias to redirect from the client site to the blog,(using post virtualhost include) like this:
Alias /blog home/blogsite/public_html
I have Aliases that work within the same cPanel account where there are multiple domains, but the above doesn't work between two accounts
I don't want to use a redirect, such as in htaccess, because that would defeat the SEO benefits. We want the blog to APPEAR to be within the client website.
So I'm not sure if I need to do something different with the alias or use a different method. This must be possible. Suggestions?
