Problems after installation

if you are working on a local machine without using a DNS
server, you
can create a simple entry in your "hosts file",
usually it is placed
in "/etc/hosts".

i work that way, in my case my "hosts" file looks
like this:

192.168.0.1 campsite.localhost.localdomain campsite

so, in the browser i can use either:

http://campsite/

or

http://campsit
e.localhost.localdomain/


regarding the vhost file, you can include it by using
something like this:

Include conf/vhosts/campsite-vhost.conf

if you are using apache 1.3.x you can simply copy and paste
to the
corresponding vhost area into the httpd.conf file.

both cases, do not forget restarting apache
