[Deaf-lug] Virtual Hosts

[JGJones]

Right...I understand your pain...I'll look at mine BUT in the meantime 
why not give this a try:

rapache aims to provide a GUI interface to configuring Apache making it 
vastly much easier.

As for your issue...I'll just take a look at my configuration and get 
back to you asap (rather busy at the moment) but emailed to let you know 
your pain is heard.
