friendica/mods/sample-Lighttpd.config

Below is a sample config for Lighttpd that
seems to work well on Debian Squeeze, with "lighttpd/1.4.28 (ssl)"

The idea is: if someone enters the bare URL for my site, 'example.com',
they get redirected to https://example.com/index.html, which is simply a
page with two links on it: https://wordpress.example.com and
https://friendica.example.com.

If someone enters https://example.com, they get redirected to
https://wordpress.example.com/main/, which is the 'main' blog in a Word
Press 'network install' of the 'subdirectory' variety.

I thought it might be nice to offer people who join my Friendica
instance their own blogs, if they like.

One can obtain free, signed, single subdomain SSL certificates from
StartCom CA, which upon checking I noticed was already installed in both
Firefox and Google Chromium.  Info at http://cert.startcom.org/ .  So I
got one for each site, and have Lighty use the appropriate cert based on
the requested URL.

Enjoy!
