Again, I am using NAME based hosting, there are almost 200 sites hosted
on that one IP address. My virtualhost setup looks something like this:

NameVirtualHosts x.94.149.9:80

<VirtualHost www.whatever.com>
 ServerName www.whatever.com
 DocumentRoot /home/someuser/public_html
</virtualhost>

<VirtualHost www.whatever.net>
 ServerName www.whatever.net
 DocumentRoot /home/user/public_html
</virtualhost>

<VirtualHost www.whatelse.com>
 ServerName www.whatelse.com
 DocumentRoot /home/some-user/public_html
</virtualhost>

I cannot simply put <VirtualHost x.x.x.x> and host on an IP basis; we're
expecting to host in the neighborhood of 2-3 thousand websites, and we
don't want to waste static IP's on those we don't have to.
