Catching every request to any unspecified IP address and port, i.e., an address/port combination that is not used for any other virtual host.
Server configuration:
... <VirtualHost _default_:*> DocumentRoot /www/default ... </VirtualHost>Using such a default vhost with a wildcard port effectively prevents any request going to the main server.
A default vhost never serves a request that was sent to an address/port that is used for name-based vhosts. If the request contained an unknown or noHost:
header it is always served from the primary name-based vhost (the vhost for that address/port appearing first in the configuration file).
You can useAliasMatch
orRewriteRule
to rewrite any request to a single information page (or script).
