OK, right now I'm going the 'frugal Milwaukee way' and not shelling out for the extra card. What the heck, why would I want to get my hands dirty (or dusty) opening up a box if I don't have to? So I've set up a second IP on the same card in the network card configuration. eth0: 1.2.3.4 eth0copy: 1.2.3.5 Now what? <g> Where do I point Apache's virtuals to the IPs, so testdomainOne.com is served up to 1.2.3.4 while 1.2.3.5 connects with testdomainTwo.com. I have a feeling that there is something in hosts that I'm going to be learning more about. <s> Anyone done this?
