I'm trying to configure Apache to allow user home pages.  It all seems
to be setup right but when I try to connect to a users homepage
(http://192.168.0.10/~nick) it tries to lookup my hostname, and I get
an error: cannot resolve nexgen.nick.net.  Which is true.  My question
is how do i make Apache send my IP instead of my hostname??  I don't
have a DNS on my local network and don't really need one ( unless of
course Apache will force me to ) :-)
