I just thought respond to this and say that it worked fine with a Perl 
CGI script. I did manage to get things working for PHP in the end. I was 
using <VirtualHost *:80> in the VirtualHost section (along with 
NameVirtualHost *:80), as soon as I changed this and defined an IP 
address instead of * (effectively making it not use NameVirtualHost) it 
worked!!

That was not really a solution for me because it means I need to have a 
separate IP address for each of these VirtualHost sections I may want to 
add Alias' or set ENV variables in the config :oS Anyone know why that 
might be? (I know it is not really a modperl related question, more of 
an apache question so feel free to ignore it :o)  FYI I have a standard 
debian linux setup running apache2 and modperl.

Thanks for all your help guys.
