The meaning of NameVirtualHost is used for other reasons as well.

Hi Florian,
Thanks for the response. I guess my question is why have the
NameVirtualHost directive since the *same* IP address is required to
be specified as an attribute in the VirtualHost block?
Thanks! -- BTR

Hi Bryan,
one example would be a machine with two IP adresses, each of them
has its own
www.domain
example:
NameVirtualHost IP1:80
<VirtualHost IP1:80>
....
</VirtualHost>
NameVirtualHost IP2:80
<VirtualHost IP2:80>
....
</VirtualHost>
but there are even more situations where NameVirtualHost could used.
Maybe
with different websites on different ports, etc.
bye
Florian
