localhost vs a vhost?

[turnbui]

Hi group,
I need some enlightenment please.
Whem I have no vhosts I access

http://localhost

and the correct directories are accessed. However, when I have a couple of vhosts [1st one is the default] if I use

http://localhost

I end up serving pages from the same directories for the first vhost ie

http://vhost1.turnbui.com?

CAn anyone tell me if having vhosts I can still have the localhost. I obviously have DocumentRoot in my <VirtualHost> block and the original DocRoot in the httpd.conf??
Thanks

Once VirtualHosts are enabled, only VirtualHosts will be served. The first in the list will be served if apache can't determine which one is being requested.
