[rt-users] RT & Apache

[Adrian Chadd]

.. imho, and not seeing the rest of your apache, if you point a browser
at rt.domain.com with rt.domain.com mapping to 192.168.168.51 it'll work.

However, and apache can be quite black magic with this, if you point
your browser at 192.168.168.51 rather than rt.domain.com it doesn't
have enough information to determine the actual VirtualHost - so, depending
on how you have your apache setup it'l either;

* fall through to the default machine setup (ie, no virtualhost)
* fall through to some "default" virtual host, which I can't remember
  how or why at 1am.

(not having enough information actually means "Whats the Host: header?"..)
