Followup: VirtualHosts..

| Following up to my post a few months back, My friend finally pointed
his IP for his domain to my server - a mac g4 running apache 2.0.52.
I've added to the top of my httpd.conf:
NameVirtualHost www.hisdomain.be:80
<VirtualHost www.hisdomain.be:80>
ServerName www.hisdomain.be
ServerAlias hisdomain.be *.hisdomain.be
DocumentRoot /Users/hisdirectory/public_html
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.espphotography.com
DocumentRoot /Library/WebServer/Documents
</VirtualHost>
But still, going to hisdomain.be goes to my index.php.
The mac is behind a NAT router (Netgear), 192.168.1.3.
Is that the problem? Am I doing something else wrong?
Thanks.
Evan

Ok, rereading the reply to my original post from hansh:
"Right, the _name_ entered is passed in request header to the server
and has to match a the setting of servername -or serveralias-.
Using the IPadress, although passed to the sever- will _fail_ for
being non-distinctive between vhosts.
Thus, any domainname hosted this way must be resolved by (public)
DNS."
Basically right now, I have a dynamic DNS.
My domain name is a cname to phirephoto.dyndns.org. My router updates
my dyndns.org name. So when you go to mydomain.com or to the other
persons's name.com, it goes to phirephoto.dyndns.org (if that makes
sense).
Is that the problem?

No. Your router will be routing these requests from the outside world
using dyndns, but internally it will be 192.168.1.2 or similar. Make sure
that this is static ( no DHCP here ), and that all names resolve on this
server to that IP address ( use /etc/hosts ).
I recommend you use <VirtualHost *:80> only for global attributes, and
then have a separate entry for www.espphotography.com and
www.hisdomain.be. That way, you find out the resolution problems when you
start up your web server, and not when you try and use it.
( Obviously www.espphotography.com and www.hisdomain.be are resolving
externally to your dyndns address (: )
HTH,
Steve

I don't know what I did differently, but it's working now....
Maybe I had a few too many bogus entries.
Thanks.
