sorry , about my bad English language 😃

    You actually need to use that. It doesnt mean what your thinking. Your computer will turn into a network because you can have millions of web page files.

      I'm using apache on xp, and have chosen just localhost as ServerName:

      127.0.0.1 is the TCP/IP local loop-back address, often named localhost. Your

      machine always knows itself by this address. If you use Apache strictly for

      local testing and development, you may use 127.0.0.1 as the server name.

      #
      ServerName localhost

      No virtualhosts or anything - just straight up! 😃

          Hmmm..
          You mean Virtualhosts, as in more than one domain from the ip?

          example for vhost / knutm

          <VirtualHost 192.165.0.63>
          ServerName www.mydomain.com
          ServerAlias mydomain.com
          ServerAdmin admin@mydomain.com
          DocumentRoot /the/path_to_root
          ErrorLog logs/mydomain.error
          TransferLog logs/mydomain.access
          </VirtualHost>
