Serving Blog under different Subdomain

I'm working on consolidating my blog and wiki with ikiwiki. I have the following question: Is it possible to serve a blog under a different subdomain? For example: URL of the wiki: wiki.example.com and I would like to be able to reach the blog under the URL blog.example.com. The permalink structure right now looks like this: wiki.example.com/blog/post/ is it possible to rewrite it so it is served as blog.example.com/post/? I don't even know if this is a question for the ikiwiki forum, but I need to start somewhere.

Thanks in advance for any ideas on how to accomplish that!

RSS

Several .setup files

I am not sure to have understood your question, but I assume the following:

your source wiki contains some subdirectory blog;
you want the whole wiki to be served as ?wiki.example.com
you want the blog subdirectory serves as ?blog.example.com

If so, what you can do is having two different setup files.

the first one would contain (using the old setup file format, but you can adapt it for the new one):
```
srcdir => "/path/to/your/source/wiki/",
url => "http://wiki.example.com",
```

and the second one would contain:

srcdir => "/path/to/your/source/wiki/blog",
url => "http://blog.example.com",

I hope I answered your question.

Apache redirection

I think you can also (assuming you are using Apache2, and having some control over it) make apache redirect ?blog.example.com to ?blog.
