Note to all, this is notification that the structure of our web hosting is going to change for now, hopefully this will mean that setting up sites will be a much easier more consistent process.
Another note, this will be a HIGHLY technical document, if you have any questions I will be happy to explain but please realize it may take me a while to do so.
Currently the vast majority of our web hosting provides the following services for each domain:
Photo Gallery
Wordpress Blog
Webmail
Database Access
Now to cut down on the amount of configuration for each site I am centralizing each one of those packages under the following subdomains and directories. However many of these directories will not contain any files but will be a pointer to other directories to conserve disk space. However the structure will still be there.
/var/www will still hold all the web directories.
/var/www/example.com will be the parent directory for all of example.com's services
/var/www/example.com/www (http://www.example.com) will be the main web site (such as wordpress)
/var/www/example.com/db (http://db.example.com) will be the database frontend for any admin work
/var/www/example.com/mail (http://mail.example.com) will be the webmail interface for the users
/var/www/example.com/gallery (http://gallery.example.com) will be the gallery frontend
