Dedicated IP
Posted: Thu Aug 07, 2008 3:10 am
Why do some hosting companies (shared) advertise the fact they offer unique IP's?
Virtual hosting with Apache works with a single IP. I assume however that FTP/SSH require an IP address.
If I had 12 clients on a single virtual machine (virtual web sites) using Apache and I wanted to offer each client SSH/FTP could I not have them each login using the IP address instead of their domain names?
WHy exactly would I *need* a unique IP...is this to support domain logins with FTP/SSH or other protocols?
