1. Overview
|
|
|
|
This proposal aims to extend the .onion naming scheme for Hidden
|
|
Service addresses with sub-domain components, which will be ignored
|
|
by the Tor layer but will appear in HTTP Host headers, allowing
|
|
subdomain-based virtual hosting.
|
|
|
|
2. Motivation
|
|
|
|
Sites doing large-scale HTTP virtual hosting on subdomains currently
|
|
do not have a good option for exposure via Hidden Services, short of
|
|
creating a separate HS for every subdomain (which in some cases is
|
|
simply not possible due to the subdomains not being fully known
|
|
beforehand).
|
|
|
|
3. Implementation
|
|
|
|
Tor should ignore any subdomain components besides the Hidden
|
|
Service key, i.e. "foo.aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.onion" should be treated
|
|
simply as "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.onion".
