[clue-tech] Apache2 virtual hosts on Kubuntu/MEPIS box-guidance needed

Good morning

I am a long time linux user that hasn't configured an
Apache webserver with virtual hosts in a very long
time.

I have referred to the wealth of Apache info online
but I still don't quite get it.

I am wondering if someone can review what I am doing
and possibly point me in the right direction?

I am using Kbuntu 5.10 (Breezy)  on an old Compac 400
box.

I have a dedicated IP# from Qwest.net, and  an
Actiontec GT701-WG DSL modem.
[[ the routing table on the modem has a route for
172.16.0.0 to 192.168.0.1  that worked fine in past. 
172.16.0.2 is the ip for the webserver in the DMZ.  I
have also forwarded  tcp/80 to 172.16.0.2  ]]


I have several domains registered with GoDaddy.com
that  I parked there and then forwarded to my assigned
Qwest IP#.  ( I can successfully do a remote
traceroute from most services on 'www.traceroute.org'
to my ded'd IP#.

When I traceroute to any of my domains
the traceroute stops at the Godaddy IP# every time 
regardless of whatever I do in configuring Apache2.

My box uses Kubuntu 5.10 and Apache2.

[[ I had previously used MEPIS on this box and had the
Same Probles with it when I tried to do Virtual
domains]]  

so I think it is a stricly Apache2 related problem...?

When in the past I have used this box with either
MEPIS or Kbuntu 'with just one domain' it works
fine.... it is the effort to do 'virtual domains' that
fails.

I think the problem is a mistake I am making...not any
problem with the o/s or Apache2.

AFTER.. I do

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload

I GET...

[Mon Mar 13 11:50:09 2006] [warn] NameVirtualHost *:0
has no VirtualHosts

I'm lost...


I'd greatly appreciate it if someone could guide me to
fixing the problem.

Thanks in advance.

John
