Thanks, it worked!

I remember that I even read this in the docu's... but forgot about...
When I started the server I only had one domain, thus I put everything I
needed into "locals".

Then way later I needed to add "virtualhosts", and I didnt look into the
docu's again, and simply added "locals" %-(.
I got confused, and panicked! hehehe... And started adding stuff to
"vitualhosts" without removing "locals" entries...
...duuuh... of course that wouldnt work.. .*sigh*

I just needed somone to tell me to use "virtualhosts" and get ridd of
"locals" ;-).

Thx for the quick help,

Andre
