Everyone in the group cnetsadm has sudo privilege to modify /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

We use virtual hosting to provide web server to several sites. Note that unrecognized HTTP requests default to the CNETS site.

GiveALink.org is set up to be served using mod_proxy to distribute requests across a cluster of 16 mongrel servers. One gotcha about this configuration is Proxy Pass. In order for this to work:

1. Proxy must be enabled
2. Proxy Pass and Reverse Proxy Pass must be defined
3. The Proxy restrictions must be set
