Virtual Host on Apache 2.0.52 (WIN 32) XP Pro

[noveltechinc]

I am hoping to setup multiple domains on one machine using one instance of Apache Server Software on WIN 32, OS: XP Pro.

I have mapped 3 urls thru DNS to my (1) IP address. They all terminate to my local Apache Document Root phys address on my local machine.

MY NEED IS: to get Apache Server to route the 3 urls to different document root paths.

Can it be done?
All suggestions welcomed!

Well if its anything like Apache 1.3.* I have this at the bottom of my httpd.conf , the rest of the config is pretty much setup for the default root and such, but then you gota have this at the bottom for virtual hosting.

NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
	DocumentRoot "C:/Sites/kb244"
	ServerName kb244
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
	DocumentRoot "C:/Sites/Nwmi"
	ServerName nwmi
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
	DocumentRoot "C:/Sites/Michigan Freeride"
	ServerName freeride
</VirtualHost>

The above is pretty much the dead simple way of doing it, a server name ( ie the url ), and the root path and thats all I have dfined, you could define seperate error and access logs, and a bunch of other properties, but i dont need them. As you may have noted above , I just type

http://kb244/

for example will pull up that first site, in my C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\Etc\Hosts file I got

127.0.0.1	kb244
127.0.0.1	nwmi
127.0.0.1	freeride

If you are not using 127.0.0.1 that could be your problem.

Again I dont know if Apache 2 does things in the same manner.
