1) your question belongs to apache-server@yahoogroups.com, 
new-httpd is for the developers of apache.

2) to answer your question: I assume you use windows. then you 
need to add this hostname to your HOSTS file. if you're on NT, 
it's in %windir%/system32/drivers/etc/, I don't know about w9x,
but look for HOSTS.SAM, copy it to HOSTS in the same dir, and 
edit HOSTS.
