Let me just say again, first, that I have a subdomain name I want to use for my 
app.

Okay.  Anyway, when I tried to get to my app just now after starting the Apache 
httpd as a service, I got an error page in Edge saying that it can't reach the 
page.  I'd like to show you my httpd configuration file again to make sure if I 
have the reverse proxy configuration done correctly.

I want to know the IP address so I can use it in my hosts file, since you said 
I can add an entry to the hosts file mapping that IP address to a given name 
domain name (or subdomain name in my case).  Though I'm not sure if doing it 
like that would make the app publicly available from anywhere.

What happens if I set up an IP-based virtual host instead?  And how easy or 
hard would it be to map a domain or subdomain name to that IP address?

Another question: the current file path I have for my virtual host DocumentRoot 
setting is the one my app's files are in.  Should I set it to the htdocs folder 
instead (if so, how do I tell it that it what files it has to serve behind a 
reverse proxy?)?

The IP httpd will use to proxy to your backend isn't typically relevant, unless 
you want to apply filtering or tracking of some sort.

Can you start over and tell us what problem you're trying to solve, again?

But I still think I should know how to find the IP address used by the Apache 
reverse proxy server.  Just in case.

Osman,

Starting another thread to ask the same question is a bit ill-advised. I would 
still recommend that you get up to speed on networking and DNS basics, first.

Next, you should read the following docs:

http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/ExampleVhosts
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/vhosts/examples.html
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mpm_common.html#listen
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/vhosts/name-based.html

Would it be possible to use that IP address with a subdomain name on a virtual 
host configuration?  I want to use the free subdomain I got from 
http://www.subdomain.net.
Subdomain.net - the largest free subdomain network<http://www.subdomain.net/>
Subdomain.net offers you a free subdomain for your website.
