Oops! I'll try to be more careful about Eudora's automatic nickname 
substitution.

Yes, I noticed that and wondered about changing it to "NameVirtualHost 
*.imp.ac.th", then decided the more general regexp was better.

Another baffling symptom: from my desktop machine I'm able to ping the www, 
admin, and su domain names, but not the editor domain name -- that one 
gives me a 'host not found' error. The others ping successfully, but 
resolve to the address of the external interface. In the /etc/hosts file 
all four are listed with the ip address 10.3.16.125, which is the address 
of the internal network card. Ping shows the address as 203.151.134.104, 
which is the address of the external network interface, the one that 
connects my lan to the internet.

I think I'll try changing the order in which the virtuall domains appear in 
the httpd.conf file.
