Yes, I have looked, but how to I make it to go to the iBay: /home/e-smith/files/ibays/plone/html ?

You can't. Plone runs it's own http server. The way I did it is to
 
create your ibay plone (this is a dummy)
install Plone into /usr/local/Plone (which will run on port 8080 by default). Check that mysite.local:8080 works
create a domain redirection plone.mysite.local which points to your ibay
create a proxy pass directive pointing to mysite.local:8080
set the plone url configuration to plone.mysite.local. This is now the url for your Plone installation.

Thanks. How did you upgrade Python to 2.4?

If you use the Unified Linux installer, it will install Python 2.4 into the Plone directory and use it for all Plone-related scripts.

Thanks for the great help but how do I do a "domain redirection" in sme? I search on contribs.org and can't find it. I'm trying to get http://www.xyz.com redirected to the plone.xyz.local.

Thanks

Use the Domain panel in Server Manager to add the Virtual Domain www.xyz.com. Then set up the Proxy Pass for that domain.

Also, in the Plone management interface, add an entry into the Virtual Host Monster for www.xyz.com (translating mysite.local:8080/Plone)

Thanks for the info. This will be my project for the next 2 weeks.
