I only have two websites pointed to my server IP, Asite.com and Bsite.com .

I only have two websites pointed to my server IP, Asite.com and Bsite.com. I tried adding a website, so I pointed Csite.com to my server IP (but I haven’t registered a virtualhost for site3.com yet). How come when I access Csite.com apache recognizes it as Asite.com even if I haven’t registered a virtualhost for Csite.com?

httpd.conf

Listen 8080
NameVirtualHost *:8080

Asite.com

<VirtualHost *:8080>
        ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
        ServerName asite.com
        ServerAlias asite.com *.asite.com
        DocumentRoot /var/www/asite.com/public
        <Directory />
                Options FollowSymLinks
                AllowOverride None
        </Directory>
        <Directory /var/www/asite.com/>
                Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
                AllowOverride All
                Order allow,deny
                allow from all
        </Directory>
        ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/error_log

        # Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit,
        # alert, emerg.
        LogLevel warn
</VirtualHost>

^The same goes for Bsite.com

    The first virtualhost is also the default:

    “The asterisks match all addresses, so the main server serves no requests. Due to the fact that http://www.example1.com is first in the configuration file, it has the highest priority and can be seen as the default or primary server. That means that if a request is received that does not match one of the specified ServerName directives, it will be served by this first VirtualHost.”

    See ‘Running several name-based web sites on a single IP address.’ http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/vhosts/examples.html
