[users@httpd] virtual host

Hi,
I have to set Virtual Hosts on my server but I'm not able.
I tried a lot of time on my web server and it is dangerous for my 
websites because they were off line for much times.
So I'm trying with a local computer, that has the same configuration.
I've windows 2000 serverm IIS on port 80 and Apache on port 81

In the config file I set htdocs as document root.
In the Apache Folder I've created a folder www and a subfolder of this 
"pomodoro".

I have set the Virtual Host as follow:


BindAddress *
Port 81
<VirtualHost pomodoro>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@pomodoro.it
    DocumentRoot /www/pomodoro
    ServerName localhost:81
</VirtualHost>

I want try in local, so if I go to the http://localhost:81 page It's ok!
But how can I see my pomodoro folder?
If I go to http://localhost:81/pomodoro The page is not found, and The 
error log of Apache tell me that folder "pomodoro" in htdocs dosn't 
exist!
Obviosly It is in www folder!!!
What can I do?

When I restart Apache there is an error: apache can not resolve host 
pomodoro...

What I have to do?
I dont' know anything about DNS, and this is a local test!!!

Thank you!
Francesca (I'm sorry for my bad english!!!)

It may be that the site is on a server hosting multiple sites on the 
same IP address. If the request doesn't contain the site name you were 
looking for, the server doesn't know which site to connect you to. 
Normally you should get some type of notification page if this happens 
though.

Why can I access a site using its URL but I can't if I use it's IP?

Thanks

NameVirtualHost 95.175.10.200:81

<VirtualHost 95.175.10.200>
     ServerName pomodoro.tudominio.com
     ServerAdmin webmaster@tudominio.com
     DocumentRoot /www/pomodoro
     CustomLog logs/acess.log combined
  </VirtualHost>

95.175.10.200 must be the IP of your machine. If you dont have a DNS server runing, you can try to use a hosts file:

95.175.10.200 tudominio.com
95.175.10.200 pomodoro.tudominio.com

But in the real life you'll need modify the DNS server where you have alocated your domain.

Bye.
