A newbie question regarding dns records
Let's say I've configured, abc.example.com -> A 10.x.x.x
and a CNAME for xyz.example.com CNAME for xyz.example.com -> abc.example.com
when a user does an http request for xyz.example.com what happens when the request reach the 10.x.x.x server. Will the URL be abc.example.com or xyz.example.com? (trying to find out if virtual host in apache need to be updated)
Thanks much
