I didn't find the information on your site about using x2.

I'm at the point where i'm all setup, i merely have to add files to the abyss folder of my choice, and all i'm trying to figure is, how do i have 2 sites on one ip address. I was told previously that i could do that. I understand how to make 2 folders with different web content, that's the easy part, but if a person clicks my ip address, how does it tell which one to serve. do i need different router port settings and so fourth.

anyway as you can tell i'm lost on this.

please help. thanks. travis.

The thing is that users usually don't click on an IP address. They visit a URL. The domain name is sent along to the web server (in HTTP1.1). So it is the server who can see what site is meant. If you do visit the site by its IP number, the default site is served.
