Configuring alternate host and port on Tomcat server - newbie question

[Shyam Anand]

Hi,
I'm running Tomcat 5.5 on a Solaris(SunOS 5.10 )box. I have a couple of 
instances of Tomcat web servers running on the same machine - the first one 
uses the primary IP/localhost and port 443, and I would like to configure the 
second instance to work with a secondary IP/alternate host and port 443 on the 
same machine. I looked at the  configuration files under the $TOMCAT_HOME/conf 
directory and noticed references to the default local host in the following 
files:
server.xml
server-minimal.xml
workers.properties
workers2.properties
logging.properties
---
In order to configure the alternate host, do I just need to replace all 
references to "localhost" with the corresponding DNS entry for my alternate 
host manually?
Or is it easier to do this through the Admin web page by creating a new host 
and new connector? I don't see any options to edit entries for the default host 
and connector - is this possible?

Could somebody let me know what is the best way to accomplish my task?

Any help/suggestions or pointers to the right documentation will be greatly 
appreciated.

Thanks,
Shyam
