Use Apache's VirtualHost ability...
Look here for more info: http://www.apache.org/docs/vhosts/
An example:

# in httpd.conf

# your ip
NameVirtualHost 192.123.44.3

# your standard host.domain (this must come first)
<VirtualHost 192.123.44.3>
ServerName your.standard.name
DocumentRoot /home/httpd/html
</VirtualHost>

# one or more extra virtual hosts
<VirtualHost 192.123.44.3>
ServerName your.zope.name
DocumentRoot /home/httpd/html
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.*)
RewriteRule ^/(.*) /home/httpd/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi/$1 \
	[e=HTTP_CGI_AUTHORIZATION:%1,t=application/x-httpd-cgi,l]
</VirtualHost>
