Re: [WEB400] Re: Setting up virtual hosts with apache

David,

Important point!  Meaning that if the instance needs to go down, ALL 
virtuals go down too, kinda like LPAR for Apache!

This can certainly be more efficient use of resources as one instance 
handles many sites. It is certainly more friendly in it's use of IP 
addresses, firewall rules etc. IMHO it also make for easier backups and 
simpler recovery in your DR plan.
