It's a pretty straightforward setup and there are several tutorials available on the web... go to your search engine of choice and do a search for Host Headers Setup and the name of your webserver application. You can also have mupltiple IP's point to the same machine and assign each IP a distinct domain name... I haven't had any perosnal experience with that option but I know that it's available. The one downside of host headers is that older browsers... say from Version 3.x and before of IE/NS don't support them. They don't send the domain with their GET request. The web server doesn't know what site to point to and will redirect to the default site, which always has to exist.
