DNS and Http HOST header issue

I am using SharePoint Server 2007 Enterprise with Windows Server 2008 Enterprise. And I am using publishing portal template. I have a physical server with a single IP address, and I have set in DNS to map two domain names (server1.mycorp.com and server2.mycorp.com) to the same server/IP address.

My question is how to setup two SharePoint web sites on the same server with a single IP address to serve two domain names individually (with the same port number 80)? My current idea is to create two SharePoint web applications for the two web sites, with the same port number 80, but with different host header (setup Http host header to server1.mycorp.com and server2.mycorp.com individually开发者_运维百科 for the two SharePoint web applications). Not sure whether my idea is feasible?

thanks in advance, George

I believe this belongs in ServerFault.

And you also seem to describe a common host header concept, when you create your WebApplication in the SharePoint Central Admin, you will define a host header, being on the same IP or not, IIS will respond to them individually, so yes it works.

Application Management => Create Web Application => define host header, define same port 80, done.
