[users@httpd] Virtual hosting

[Re...@aol.com]

Dear friends,

I am trying to host web sites on apache server 2 on windows 2000.as a 
service, On my local machine.Now plan to host web sites so that they can be seen on 
internet.

For  name based virtual hosting.I entered following directive.of first web 
site domain, which is a registered domain.

<VirtualHost>


   NameVirtualHost *

    <VirtualHost *>
    ServerName www.doctorbush.com
    DocumentRoot /www/doctorbush
    </VirtualHost>

    <VirtualHost *>
    ServerName www.doctorbushsecond.com
    DocumentRoot /www/otherdomain
    </VirtualHost>

I have files for each site in separate directory, for example like
c://homesite/website  is the directory where all the files of first web site 
are locatted.

As http://localhost I am seeing the files.
I browsed
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/platform/windows.html couldn't get the 
answer.

What else directive I need to enter so that the directories of each web site 
will be browsed over the internet.

Guidance, please.

As its name implies, name-based virtual hosting is NAME based.
This means that if a browser requests a document from http://example.com 
it will get the virtual host for example.com.  if you request 
http://example2.com you will get the example2.com virtual host.  If you 
enter a name that is not defined in your configuration (like 
http://localhost) or an ip address, you will just get the first virtual 
host defined in your configuration.

if you want to be able to see both from localhost, just add example.com 
and example2.com in your hosts file and point them to 127.0.0.1.
