Dear Jeff,

   Could you please give more details for how to "use lo0"?
   What is your ifconfig line, exactly?
   I have been having trouble implementing apache virtual hosting,
and I would like to try your way.
   Please add other details, if you think of them.
   Thank you,

Wayne M Barnes      stabilizer@klentaq.com
