You're saying that if I have:
www.xxx.com
www.yyy.com
www.zzz.com
all resolving to the same IP address 192.168.1.1
that Apache knows which virtual server to use and therefore which real file system to
service from when Joe Shmoe comes along and points his broswer to www.yyy.com?
I'd like to know how that is configured, because obviously I've missed it some how
become
I'm not talking about www.yyy.com/~someuser stuff...
Thanks!
