You want to move among your current web host or?

And what your new web host? I think that you can ask them to help you.

Sounds like your question is really - "How do I configure Apache virtual hosts"?? In that case check this out: http://www.netahoy.org/tutorials/apache2.htm - but the Apache documentation should be enough: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/vhosts/examples.html

So you need to use the first server as the dns server?

Why can't you go with a vps with web panel? It will be very easy to create two sites on one shared ip.

There are some free web panels with basic features (I think Lxadmin is free). It will be easy to manage few things with them.

k ive edited my httd.conf file and it dont seem to work what am i doing wrong?
im try to run two name bases site on 1 ip using virtual host..
this is what i followed it was in the httd.conf file.
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/vhosts/

Code:


NameVirtualHost *:80
#
# NOTE: NameVirtualHost cannot be used without a port specifier 
# (e.g. :80) if mod_ssl is being used, due to the nature of the
# SSL protocol.
#

#
# VirtualHost example:
# Almost any Apache directive may go into a VirtualHost container.
# The first VirtualHost section is used for requests without a known
# server name.
#


<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.site1.com
ServerAlias djleak.com *.site1.com
DocumentRoot www/html/
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.site2.com
DocumentRoot www/html/vbforum
</VirtualHost>
