yes i'm using "NameVirtualHost *"

with the settings above it would serve the web page from

C:/Inetpub/wwwroot the root directory of www.daleeluck.com
not from
E:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs the root directory of
local host "winxp"
to get the local host to serve the web page from
E:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs i would have to comment
out Documentroot c:/inetpub/wwwwroot.
