I'm not quite sure what you're saying, but I believe that you're
saying that my DNS records for fineworks.com and etiam.net aren't
set up properly.

Well, there's a reason for that.

I would like to get the 4.0 server up and running properly BEFORE
I make the DNS changes. Server down time is unacceptable regardless
of how irrelevant the pages that exist on them are.

I believe and have been told that Apache 1.3.12 does not check the
DNS records to see if they agree with what's in the config file, so
as far as I know, the fact that I have not set up my DNS records to
point to the new server should be irrelevant. (does anyone disagree?)

In any case, because the DNS records are not set up for those domain
names, in order to test to see if Apache is working as desired, I have
to telnet directly to port 80 on the server and do the GET queries
by hand.
