I use these so that when, for example, I go to http://foo.bar/someplace/, the apache server listenening for connections on port 80 proxies the connections to an apache server at http://localhost:8080/. Of course, you can even do this with other apache servers on your network, but I find it most useful for running apache 1.3 and 2.0 (or two of the same version with different modules loaded) on the same server. -Roberto -- Roberto C.
