Creating root web
Install completed.

Note that the host name (e.g. 192.168.9.9) that you enter should be the same as that defined in the server config file.  Look in /usr/local/etc/apache/httpd.conf for a line that looks like this:

<VirtualHost 192.168.1.1>

For the above line, you can specify the web site URL (e.g. www.freebsd.org) instead of the IP address.  See Apache name-based Virtual Host Support for more details on this option.  I've always used the IP address.

Note, that under recent version of Front Page, I've found that for the "Enter host name for multi-hosting", I needed to enter the ServerName as found in the httpd.conf file.

Enter server config filename: /usr/local/etc/apache/httpd.conf
Enter host name for multi-hosting []: www.nzfug.nz.freebsd.org
'www.nzfug.nz.freebsd.org' server is not a valid virtual server.

In the above example, we supplied the instead of the IP when the IP was specified in the server config file.
