Paul, please get the DNS up and running first, before you can think of Apache. In any case, virtual name hosts will require that the DNS service be setup, so name-based resolutions is possible.

Please follow the guidelines learned thus far, as well as what Brian Candler posted to you earlier.

hello mark,

now I can ping the linux box within my network now and it can be ping from anywhere on the net now.

I just did a fresh installation of the linux now. so how do I go about setting up the apache and dns now?

When I open apache program configuration,

the main frontpage I have basic setup

server name is it my IP address of the linux box that will be there or what? and the webmaster email address is root at localhost do I need to change it to my own email address?

2, Virtual Hosts menu I see name and address, when I click edit -

what is going to be in the Virtual HostName, and the IP based virtual Host, I saw IP address and Server HostName, what will the server hostname be?

thanks.
