DESCRIPTION Print the full filename of the current working directory. It has 2 flags and it takes no arguments. -L, --logical use pwd from environment, even if it contains symbolic links. -P, --physical avoid all symbolic links.

It is a method to apply different directives based on the IP address and port a request is received on. It is commonly used to serve different websites on different ports or interfaces. Using a single IP address but multiple TCP ports is also called IP-based virtual hosting. It uses the IP address of the connection to determine the correct virtual host to serve. Therefore you need to have a separate IP address for each host. Name-based Virtual Hosting Many different hosts can share the same IP address. It is simpler than IP-based hosting since you only need to configure the DNS server to map each hostname to the correct IP address a
