accessing a virtual host in local machine

[ajos]

I installed apache.
i want to add (for test purpose) activetest.com as a virtualhost in my local machine and show its access in the browser.
How could I do this??

[ajos]

And Igot the solution too
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost 192.168.1.15:80>
ServerAdmin ajo@host9.activein.com
DocumentRoot /opt/htdocs # the path
ServerName activetest.com
</VirtualHost>


also create an entry to /etc/hosts

192.168.1.15 sub.activetest.com activetest.com activeaddon.com

the sites listed here will be accessed from the local machine itself.
