Apache uses virtual hosts to support many different URLs on one machine on one IP address. When you connect to apache with your browser, the browser provides enough information to Apache to give you the URL you want.
Question: If the URL is not in the DNS system, and all you have is the IP address (say, 1.2.3.4) and the name of the virtual (say, foobar.example.org ), how do you use firefox (or other browser) to tell apache at 1.2.3.4 to serve the foobar.example.org content, or any of the other specific URLs served by virtual hosts on that machine? The best way is to provide good DNS, of course, but that isn't available if all you control is a user account and a browser.
