 * Hi all,
 * I’m unable to access my name-based virtual hosted domains from the LAN side of
   my network. I’m currently (attempting to) host three domains, two are to be WordPress
   sites and the other is going to be straight html. The problem is this: I’ve set
   up the host file on my Windows dev box to point at the domains. This works as
   advertised for the HTML site but chokes on the WordPress sites (connection time-
   out) so the host file is doing _something_.
 * The funny thing (and probably a good clue) is that if I actually point the browser
   at the wp-login.php page I get a stripped down no-graphics version of the login
   page so the vhosts are also doing _something_. I Should note that it takes, like,
   a full minute to serve the page. Just to be clear everything works perfectly 
   from the WAN side. I’ve tried everything I can think of but could sure use some
   help.
 * Server is Ubuntu 10.4 Server addition with LAMP.
    I am installing WordPress 3.0.4
 * The www directory structure is:
 *     ```
       /var/www/siteone/public/<Wordpress Installation>
       /var/www/sitetwo/public/<Wordpress Installation>
       /var/www/sitethree/public/index.html
       ```
   
 * `/etc/apache2/sites-available`
 * 3 virtual host files
 *     ```
       siteone.com
       sitetwo.com
       sitethree.com
       ```
   
 * They are all structured thusly:
 *     ```
       <VirtualHost *:80>
       	ServerAdmin email@siteone.com
       	ServerName siteone.com
       	ServerAlias www.siteone.com
       	DocumentRoot /var/www/siteone/public
       </VirtualHost>
       ```
   
 * My windows host file (C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts):
 *     ```
       127.0.0.1       localhost
       192.168.1.10       siteone.com
       192.168.1.10       sitetwo.com
       192.168.1.10       sitethree.com
       ```
