IP/Hostname Virtual Host

Hello,

Is there a way I can create a virtual host based on a DYNAMIC IP and
hostname? In other words, I want to redirect people who connect to my
site with my IP address (e.g. http://62.252.64.3) or its hostname
(e.g. http://a553e3.25sv543ca.myisp.com). If you are curious to know
why I want this, the reason is that I only want people who know my
domain to access my Web site, and to restrict access to those who
lookup my IP or hostname on IRC, IM, etc.

I know how to create virtual hosts, but my problem is that my
IP/hostname is dynamic so it changes.

If this is done without virutal hosts, please let me know, because I
can't think of anything else.

Thank you.

And how do you plan to distinguish the various Virtual Hosts then?
If you point your browser to http://the.ip.address.here/ you'll get
everytime the same VHost. If you just need to have your system
available, just do not specify a ServerName in the general part of
the httpd.conf and you'd be ready to roll.

here is your fix :)
just set up a domain .. set default server to redirect to some other site.
ex. myircsite.kicks-ass.net will go to site A. you tell the ppl who you want
to go to your site the url.
anyone looking up your ip or isp's domain will not go to that site, but will
go to the default web site. which you can redrect to anywhere you want.
