+ The server machine has two IP addresses (<SAMP>192.168.1.1</SAMP>
+ and <SAMP>111.22.33.55</SAMP>). The machine is sitting between
+ an internal (intranet) network and an external (internet) network.
+ Outside of the network, the name <SAMP>server1.domain.tld</SAMP>
+ resolves to the external address (<SAMP>111.22.33.55</SAMP>), but
+ inside the network, that same name resolves to the internal
+ address (<SAMP>192.168.1.1</SAMP>).<P>
+
+ The server can be made to respond to internal and external
+ requests with the same content, with just one <CODE>VirtualHost</CODE>
+ section.
