The NameVirtualHost setting is an ip-address followed by an optional
port number, so it might look like one of these:

    NameVirtualHost *
    NameVirtualHost 10.3.16.125
    NameVirtualHost *:80
    NameVirtualHost 10.3.16.125:80

I'm a bit confused, mkdoc-1.4 uses three domain names:

      www.example.com
      editor.example.com
      admin.example.com

(mkdoc-1.6 is a bit simpler, 'editor' and 'admin' have been merged
into a unified 'users' interface)

That doesn't sound right, what do your /etc/hosts entries look like?
