Funny you should ask, I'm working on a how-to web site for setting up web servers, but I haven't made it as far as the virtual stuff. Really simple, though. First, you need to set up an aliased IP address. if you're connected to ethernet, you can simply add a line to /etc/rc.local that looks like this: ifconfig ed0 alias 204.160.242.11 netmask 255.255.255.255 Then, you need to add something like this to the srm.conf file (wherever it is located) <VirtualHost test.bfd.com> ServerAdmin webmaster@bfd.com ServerName test.bfd.com DocumentRoot /usr/local/www/htdocs/test ErrorLog logs/test.bfd.com-error_log TransferLog logs/test.bfd.com-access_log Alias /index.html /usr/local/www/htdocs/test/root.shtml </VirtualHost> where all the locations and such match up, and test.bfd.com is replaced with the name that corresponds to the IP address.
