That VAR is a variable that is passed to it by YOUR browser. So if you put an entry in /etc/hosts such as: <yourinternalserverip> something.ridiculous.com Then point your browser to http://something.ridiculous.com, it will say "Welcome to something.ridiculous.com". When you turn off that UseCanonicalName setting, you are telling the server "use whatever name the client gives to me as my name". Blue skies...
