After reviewing that page (which I appreciate), I'm not sure that this 
works for *all* calls to a URL. In other words, if my server is called 
*thewebsons.com*, I have a virtual host called *allmyjokes.com* and I want 
all calls to *allmyjokes.com* to call the ZServer and Zope, how do I 
configure this in such a way that a client can click, for example, 
http://AllMyJokes.com/ and be redirected to 
http://TheWebsons.com:8080/allmyjokes/ with it being transparent to the 
client? Do I do this in the <Directory> container or in the <VirtualHost> 
container? The latter makes more sense to me, and hence the confusion.
TIA,
