After reading this I believed I had found it.

What hostname? I understood it as the hostname of the server, not the domainname

So with the settng in xinetd at  -hvermeir.dyndns.org I created the
directory /var/gopher/vermeir.dyndns.org

The only result was that vermeir.dyndns.org did serv directly from
that new directory but also gopher.wikizine.org

After that I changed  -hvermeir.dyndns.org to  -hgopherserverubuntu  -
that was interesting but did not work. Virtual hosting did seemed to
work but all domains always point to the same directoy.

Now I have put it back like it was;

walter@gopherserverubuntu:/etc/xinetd.d$ cat gophernicus
# default: on
# description: Gophernicus - Modern full-featured gopher server
service gopher
{
	socket_type	= stream
	wait		= no
	user		= nobody
	server		= /usr/sbin/in.gophernicus
	server_args	= -r/var/gopher -hvermeir.dyndns.org
	disable		= no
}


And this is my directory setup;

walter@gopherserverubuntu:~$ tree /var/gopher
/var/gopher
├── docs -> /usr/share/doc/gophernicus
├── gophermap
├── gopherserverubuntu
│   └── gophermap
├── gopher.wikizine.org
│   └── gophermap
└── vermeir.dyndns.org
    └── gophermap

4 directories, 4 files

The gophermap contains only a title of what directroy it is;
/var/gopher , gopher.wikizine.org , vermeir.dyndns.org

.... and %

and that gives the listing of the domains. But the keep pointing to
the same directory.

gopher://vermeir.dyndns.org/
gopher://gopher.wikizine.org/

.... it keeps going to the directory vermeir.dyndns.org

I do not see anything like that in syslog anymore. No errors.

At least one worry less.

I suspect it will be a big end user error why it did not worked.
