Bug ID: 65092
Summary: probable error in ServerName documentation
Product: Apache httpd-2
Version: 2.5-HEAD
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P2
Component: Documentation
Assignee: docs@httpd.apache.org
Reporter: calestyo@scientia.net
Target Milestone: ---
Hey.
mod/core.html#servername says:
"Additionally, this is used when creating self-referential redirection URLs
when UseCanonicalName is set to a non-default value."
However, this seems to be wrong.
The default value of UseCanonicalName is "Off", but the non-default value might
not be just "On", in which case the above sentence would be true, but also
"DNS", in which case "Apache httpd does a reverse DNS lookup on the server IP
address that the client connected to in order to work out self-referential
URLs".
So the sentence should be rather something straight forward like:
"Additionally, this is used when creating self-referential redirection URLs
when UseCanonicalName is set Off."
Cheers,
Chris.
