BUT...  If they are on the same host, and the virtually hosted site is
not available, WHY would the default site be available?  The only thing
that *should* stop the virtual site from being displayed is that the
software is down...  No?

Ah well...  I don't know :)  In any case, this topic should be moved to
a web newsgroup instead of BIND...  (The DNS appears to be working OK.)

However, THIS web site reports some DNS problems...  Specifically with
'stealth' nameservers.  They might be causing the problem.

learn a great deal today.
