First of all you need to understand what the hell is this Apache Virtual Hosting?

Answer is simple and staright forward. setting up more then One Host/Site over Single Server is called Virtual Hosting.

There are mainly two types of Virtual Hosting :

1) Name Based Virtual Hosting
2) IP Based Virtual Hosting

1) Name Based Virtual Hosting : Running multiple virtual hosts over a Single IP

2) IP Based Virtual Hosting : When a Server is having multiple IP’s and per IP is having it’s own Virtual Host is called IP Based Virtual Hosting.

Now its time to see how to Setup and configure Name Based Virtual Hosting and IP Based Virtual Hosting?
