I use a linux dev box, but the principal should be the same. setup apache to use virtualhosts, that way you can have multiple webroots. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/vhosts/
<VirtualHost 192.168.100.110:80> ServerName mysite.dev DocumentRoot /home/mysite.dev/public_html ErrorLog /home/mysite.dev/logs/error_log CustomLog /home/mysite.dev/logs/access_log combined </VirtualHost> i use a .dev suffix for my dev sites, which is resolved for me by the DNS on my dev box, but you can still use the same by manually entering the hostname & ip in your hosts file Chris 2008/11/3 Rich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Thanks Adam, I figured it was about as straightforward as that. > > So, as a follow up question, do you follow any sort of best practice > to develop multiple sites on the same computer?
