Hey Jeff,

I was wondering.  Does it make sense to set up an apache server and using
the virtual machine option to point to each of my boxes.  What I was
thinking doing this, but instead of pointing each address to a folder, I
might be able to point it to a IP address on the local lan.  That way,  I do
not need separate IPs for each machine.

I have seen this done, but I have not tried it.  I didnt really want to get
into it if it were not possible.
I know I can add a secondary DNS to the dd-wrt router, and I was thinking
this would be a good way to go.

What you need to do is have dynamic DNS (from any provider) point to
your router's public IP#.

Then the problem is you have to route the oustside stuff through to your
home system.

Does each of your home systems have its own public IP#?  Probably not.

Which means it has NATted IP#s.

Presuming that you have to tell your router that everything that comes
in on a given IP#/port pair from the outside, gets routed to the
IP#/port pair of the correct machine.

If you want different subdomains to go to different machines but only
have one public IP# answered by the router, then you probably need to
use a router that can route based on host-headers (you may have to
write your own <wry grin>).

Or get multiple IP#s from your provider and put the machines outside
your router-firewall (which is what we do; I have five routable IP#s at
home; one for my router, four left for other systems, which of course
have to be hardened as if they were at a datacenter, because they're
directly on the 'net.

I hope I've been a bit of help.
