Hi,

Can somebody explain this phrase to me?:

============================================
For example, to publish Folder "/foo" as http://www.foo.com/, put a Virtual
Host Monster in the root folder and rewrite requests for that URL to
/VirtualHostBase/http/www.foo.com/foo/VirtualHostRoot/
============================================

It is taken from the Virtual Host Monster tool description but I do not
know how to use it to do the following:

> I have a Plone site created in the Root Folder called company.
>
> Then, I access it  this way: http://host:port/company
>
> Now, I want to enter it this way: www.company.com
>
> I have tried several times cofiguring the Virtual Host Monster (Mapping)
> but it does not work. I am probably doing something wrong as I do not
> understand very well the available documentation...
>
Thanks a lot, Mariela
