The following script will help you to create upto 5 websites in apache with basic configuration you may increase the number to N by adding N numbers for value a. Please make sure that you have taken a backup of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file before you proceed, and this script will create a user too so make sure you understand what it is doing.
