unless they give you an ip#...

the ip# for any virtual domain will be the real ip# of the
hosting machine
 	- nothing you can do about it... unless you have access to
	the dns records on their domain ...

	telnet www.a.com
	telnet www.b.com
	telnet www.c.com 

	and the ip# will all be the same as www.xyz.com if its hosting all
	3 virtual domains

	its only different if they give a, b and c a different ip#
	that all sits on xyz.com...
