You have to run two different httpd's (with different root areas, of course). They would run on diff ports, say one on 80 (default) and the other on 2000. URL for the first is http://xyz.com/ and that for the second http://xyz.com:2000/ or http://abcd.com:2000/ assuming that abcd.com is the DNS equivalent of xyz.com, and is a more logical name for the second server. The port number has to be there. Am I missing a point? -- Rupesh
