   I'm a little unclear on this topic, the basic thing is, that the server   
   determines from the IP address, that, for example, Mary's site is being   
   requested - I'm a little fuzzy as to the details.... how do you configure   
   Apache to do that? But the larger    
   question is.... how do you TELL one server that it has multiple IPs (in   
   Linux)? And then, I suppose, depending on which IP the request came in *on*,   
   the server would know that it's Mary's directory that's required..? But HOW?   
   How does the whole thing    
   work?   
      
      
   Thanks.
