	Apache's VirtualHost option allows two web servers with
	two /different/ IP addresses to coexist on the same host.
	For example, my FreeBSD box hosts www.cybernothing.org
	on 207.96.1.32, and www2.cauce.org on 207.96.1.38 (plus
	others on other IP addresses):

<VirtualHost 207.96.1.38>
ServerAdmin webmaster@www2.cauce.org
DocumentRoot /usr/local/www/data/www2.cauce.org
ServerName www2.cauce.org
ErrorLog logs/cauce.error_log
Action text/html /cgi-bin/cauce-footer
</VirtualHost>

	What you're thinking of is the new HTTP/1.1 Host request
	header, which is described in RFC 2068.  I'm not certain
	if Apache supports this yet, but IMHO it doesn't really
	matter because the vast majority of browsers out there
	only understand HTTP/1.0 and therefore still require one
	apparent web server per IP address.

	http://www.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/http/rfc2068.txt has some
	good info about this in section 19.5.1 (beware: this is
	a /big/ document.)
