All,

  I'm trying to set up a Virtual Host Monster so that I can take a URL like http://mylocal.machine.com:8080/plone_site and turn it into something like http://home.mylocal.machine.com/. I'm using Zope as a server on port 8080 (v2.6.1 on SuSE 7.3). Following the directions in the Zope Book for 2.6 (http://www.zope.org/Documentation/Books/ZopeBook/2_6Edition/VirtualHosting.stx, I end up with the ability to access the folder with the shorter URL only on the localhost, access from other machines fails, primarily (I think) because there is no "home.mylocal.machine.com" in the DNS tables. Am I missing something fundamental here? Is there further configuration I need to do? I have Apache running, but I'd rather not mess with it's configuration unless I really have to. Thanks.

Tom.
