Timothy,

Without going into too much detail, you are going to want to set up a
virtual host in apache for the hostname www.isd197.k12.mn.us, and inside
that virtual host you will want to add your ProxyPass lines similar to my
example:

<VirtualHost 63.193.78.22>
     ServerAdmin knight@phunc.com
     DocumentRoot /home/knight/www/phunc/html
     ServerName www.phunc.com
     ErrorLog /home/knight/www/phunc/logs/error_log
     CustomLog /home/knight/www/phunc/logs/access_log combined
     ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/home/knight/www/cgi-bin/"

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
     RewriteEngine On
     RewriteLog "/home/knight/www/phunc/logs/rewrite_log"
     RewriteLogLevel 2
     RewriteRule ^/cgi-bin/ - [L]
     RewriteRule ^/local/(.*) http://www.phunc.com/$1 [L]
     RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://www.phunc.com:8080/$1 [P]
     ProxyVia on
</IfModule>

</VirtualHost>

Where I've used Rewrite, you will want to replace it with your ProxyPass
lines. Keep in mind that _any_ requests for www.isd197.k12.mn.us will get
passed to your zope site, and you will need to add "local" entries for
directories you want to stay on the apache system for that FQDN.

For the other non-Zope virtual hosts, just have them set up the same way
they are most likely.
