Argh. I know my way around unix/apache plenty. But for some reason apaches "Listen" directive seems to be broke.

Is anyone using the apache "Listen" directive to sucessfully bind _that instance of apache_ to certain ip's?

Here's what I'm doing on this server:

I want to have one apache server plain jane (just a basic static install).. I ONLY want it to listen to a few different IP's on port 80. I need to use name based virtual hosts.

I am running another apache server on the same machine with mod_php, openssl etc etc.. the full blown bloated apache server. This will also be listening to DIFFERENT ip's.

Forget about the full blown server for now. What I'm trying to do just pertains to the slimmed down apache...

httpd.conf info:

I have created a few lines of

Listen 12.33.44.55.66:80
Listen 12.33.44.55.67:80
Listen 12.33.44.55.68:80

etc, of the IP's I want THAT apache server to respond to.

I then have a single:

NameVirtualHost *

declared to say "look out for name based virts on all the IP's that you should be 'Listening' to"

Then in each virtual host, I'm using:

[VirtualHost *]
(The >< wouldnt translate.)

afaik this SHOULD be working.. but its not doing chit. Argh.
