I have several web sites (PHP-driven :-) that I want to host on my new xServe, which is sitting behind a regular router/firewall. I know how to forward port 80, etc., from the WAN side to the xServe on the LAN, and that's working fine. But now I would like to move several web sites that are presenting running on various ISPs to this server o' mine.
This is where I'm kinda stuck. I know the xServe and Mac OS X Server can run multiple web sites/domains (the docs say so). But does each of my domains, registered with Network Solutions, need to point to a unique IP address? If they can all point to the same IP address (my router), then once the HTTP request is passed through the router, and port-forwarded to the xServe, how will the xServe know which request is for which domain/web site? If each domain needs its own IP address, then how can the all be forwarded to the same single router (which just has one IP address)?

Asking this question I realize that there is some fundamental network stuff I don't understand. But the thing is, I don't know *what* I need to learn or in what order, so it's a little hard to start googling my ignorance away.
If any of you know a good tutorial or how-to guide that more or less covers this kind of thing, I would very much appreciate it.
