I run four domains in a directory tree off of the root, e.g. \DOMAINS\DOMAIN1, \DOMAINS\DOMAIN2, etc. Each DOMAIN has its own HTDOCS directory (as well as CGI-SHL, etc.) Within Website I have the root mapping for \DOMAIN1 pointing at \DOMAINS\DOMAIN1\HTDOCS. I also have a map for \DOMAIN1\SHR-CGI-SHL pointing at the common directory \WEBSITE\CGI-SHL, which is where WebCatalog is installed. I then have a directory for each web site under the WebCatalog directory. This way, one installation of WebCatalog can be efficiently shared between multiple sites, and I have the option of having both shared CGI executable directory (SHR-CGI-SHL) as well as a stand-alone CGI directory (CGI-SHL). If you never intend on having any site-specific CGI, you can simply map \DOMAIN\CGI-SHL to \WEBSITE\CGI-SHL directly.For example, my home page refers to: in order to start using the WebCatalog generated pages.There are many ways that this can be set up, but in general, all WebCatalog files belong in a subdirectory of the primary WebCatalog location, so that WebSite cannot serve up any WebCatalog file except through WebCatalog itself. All static web pages belong in a directory outside of the WebCatalog heirarchy. So your idea below is fine, except you need to leave WebCatalog where it is, and simply use a map for each domain to point at the WebCatalog installation (even if they all do not use it at first).-------------------- Original Message Follows --------------------Date: 2 Jun 1998 16:34:43 From: bob Subject: Re: Updating a database once per day - An exampleHey Ken, In previous conversations you stated, that you had setup webcat on website professional 1.1.
