2 x HTTP servers on one host?

[Banana]

Hello,

Sorry if the subject line is a bit vague and I'll try to keep this as
concise as possible! Here goes...

I have a wireless ip camera which connects to my wireless router.

I have forwarded port 80 on the router for the camera (HTTP), and I can now
see the camera from any other computer via a DynDNS host name which points
to my home ip addy. The camera has its own inbuilt HTTP Server.

My question is, if I decided to have, say, Apache HTTP Server running on my
home computer as well as the ip camera, which would be the default HTTP
server?

Or in other words, on a remote computer, would 'myhostname.homeip.net' point
towards the camera HTTP Server or the Apache HTTP Server and how would I
connect to the other?

Or maybe a simpler analagy would be to say, 1 Wireless Router Access Point
and 2 Wireless computers, both running Apache. Which computer would serve up
the web page and how would I connect to the other server?

I'm not altogether convinced I've posted to the right newsgroup so sorry if
it appears a bit off-topic!

Hope I've explained that OK and thanks for any advice given,

Best wishes,

Paul.

I am not sure that will work for Apache, you may try Host Header Names to
Host Multiple Sites on One IP. This how to may help.
