I haven't played around with Apache2 yet, but I know this isn't possible with 1.3x versions. The virtual hosts must be on the same box. What kind of IP does the second box have? Static, dynamic, something you made up for your internal network? For Apache to serve up the second domain, you need to point the DNS to that second box (if it has an IP that can be hit from the outside).

I've never used IIS, but I'd be suprised if it would point a virtual host to another box.

I have an external IP registered in DNS. The machine that hosts
apache 2.040 is publicly accessible and everything with it works
fine.
Here's the problem:
I have another machine inside the firewall which is running apache. I have a another registered domain which I want to serve from this
machine. I thought that the name-based VirtualHost directive would
do the trick, but when I add the VirtualHost section (listening on
the same port as the main site) along with ServerName, etc., an
external access to www.insidedomain.com opens the
www.outsidedomain.com page.
I have tried ProxyPass, PermanentRedirect, a combination of name-
and IP-based virtual hosts, anything I could think of, but nothing
works.
DNS is right, so far as I can tell; the internal and external
entries are there (split-brain). An external ping to
www.insidedomain.com results in a hit, as expected. The
www.insidedomain.com site is accessible from inside the network. But any attempt to access it from outside fails over to the default
virtual (main) site.
So, the short question is - is anybody successfully running, on a
single external IP, a virtual host inside the same internal network
that is accessible from outside by that virtual site's registered
name? If so, any tips would be greatly appreciated.
I could post the VirtualHost sections from my httpd.conf, but
frankly it has gone through so many iterations that it would be
pointless. What I need is a working example or at least a pointer
on the right approach to take.
Any help much appreciated!
Thanks/Brad

me miss a feature of IIS.
