Subject: RE: [users@httpd] can I resolve vhost to ip + port

That's a good suggestion, Tim. It didn't even cross my mind.
Unfortunately, I don't have access to the DNS server on this one, but I
have another site I want to move as well and I do have access to that
DNS server. 

Thanks, Todd

If you have access to the DNS server (you mentioned you didn't want to
change it
yet, but if not setting yous hosts file may get you by) just create a
new entry,
like www2.domain and set your virthost in the config. Quite simple to
change
back when you're ready. Unless I totally mis-understood what you want to
do...
