you can also define 2 virtual hosts, one for frontend, one for backend
access.
Just duplicate the virtualhost section and change following:
1. the frontend host:
- add the following lines to avoid admin access
Deny from all
2. the admin host:
- change the ServerName to admin.mycampsitepage.com
- change DirectoryIndex directive to "DirectoryIndex admin.php"
Don't try to change the DocumentRoot of the admin host, it will not work.
Note: named based virtual hosts does not work with ssl. You need to
configure IP-based virtual hosts if you want to use ssl.
Best,
Sebastian
