I agree with you that virtual hosts may be useful down the line. But the problem I am having now is that when trying to run the tutorial from IBM it brings the register screen up fine, but when I press submit it shows the 404 error object not found and the url shows localhost/users/register instead of localhost/cake/users/register. To see the register view I rtpe in localhost/cake/users/register and it displays fine. I even tried changing the code in the user_controller.php to point to /cake/users/register instead of what the tutorial states of /users/register and it did not help. I did add RewriteBase /cake/ to my /cake directory as a FAQ suggested. This did not help unless I moved it to my document root in which case cake worked and my other apps did not!
