I'm attaching the httpd.conf file here because I forgot to do so in the 
previous message.  Please let me know if it's fine now.

I need a suggestion for a good place where I can get a free subdomain name, 
preferably one that has a .com extension and which will take my computer's IP 
address.

Use the DocumentRoot directive and a <Directory> section that matches, just as 
your defauly configuration surely already had.

And do I have to also run the server that I want to put behind the reverse 
proxy for this to work, or is that not necessary?

The proxy server isn't starting it for you, so yes it's necessary for you to 
start it.


And please also tell me if I have the reverse proxy configuration stuff done 
correctly in the httpd.conf file.  I'm attaching it to this message.


Looks wrong, it is proxying back to port 80.

Along with that, I also want to know how to get a subdomain so I can use that 
and its IP address for my virtual host and ProxyPass settings as needed.  I'll 
get a free subdomain and instead of a top-level domain if that's okay for this.

Find a provider of free subdomain DNS.  Determine your computers IP address.  
Fill out the free providers form and associate the two.

What I'm doing is having the Apache httpd listen on port 80 while I have the 
server I want to put behind the reverse proxy listen on port 8080.  When I 
tried to put both on the same port, and tried to run the server I'm trying to 
proxy, I got an error on that server saying that I'm trying to access a port I 
have no permission to access.

Generally you'll need to pick different ports.
