explained.

What does "you can use "listen" on the multiple server names. " mean exactly?

QUOTE: Enable your web server to share your MediaWiki install with all wikis.

For multiple (sub)domains, you can use "listen" on the multiple server names.

For multiple subdirectories, you could use: rewrite rules, aliases, or symlinks.

Bawolff hi again bawoff thanks for response.

It sounds like they are talking about virtual hosts (some web servers use a config directive named listen for that), but i agree its terribly phrased.

no idea; listen may refer to TCP listen.

1. LISTEN server TCP/IP call :::This LISTEN call tells the TCP⁄IP address space that the server is ready to begin accepting connections.

when server is operational after start up, means of communication in or/and out (ports, sockets...) are open to receive or send requests to other servers. Listening is to wait a command on an input port and process it. Please general information about servers on Linux, Apache, or other to get common with the terminology. In a farm of wikis servers exchange messages to each other. Of course they know each other the configuration of the network for that. -- Christian 🇫🇷 FR (talk) 07:58, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
