To clarify... the above was in reference to your comment about copying objects from the root folder... I wasn't sure what objects you meant.
Well, if I have my main site in a folder below the Zope root, I assume that I'd have to tell it what content to place there, so in my case, using Plone, wouldn't it be necessary to create a Plone instance there?
Yes.
If I decide to host a different domain in a separate folder, I would imagine that I would want a separate Plone setup for that domain?
Most likely
Use the Virtual Host Monster's Mappings tab to cause your URLs to be rewritten if:
* You run a "bare" Zope without a front-end webserver like Apache. * You have one or more folders in your Zope that you'd like to publish as "http://some.hostname.com/" instead of "http://hostname.com/a/folder".
That sounds like they are both usable, but mutually exclusive.
You should infer an "and" between those bullet points. VHM mappings are only necessary if Zope is on 80 (running "bare") _and_ you want Zope to do virtual host rewriting. Running Zope behind Apache, VHM requires no configuration. Just install it and pass correctly-formed proxy requests... acquisition will do the rest.
I'm getting a bit ahead of myself here - I want to understand more of how to set Plone up before I get off on too many tangents.
Fair enough. Once Plone works from: server_ip:8080/path/to/plone then you'll be ready to worry about getting your Apache setup right. Dylan
