The direction I like to go sometimes is to use sub domains so you don't have
to start going the port route.  For instance, http://sub.domain.com/ is much
more appealing than http://domain:8080/. Not that URLs have to be appealing,
but sometimes image matters :-)

Now I'm confused. I thought the reason people used separate ports so often on the iSeries was so they could have their own Apache configuration that they could mess around with and not worry about breaking the main server?

Using subdomains (and by that, I assume you're using VirtualHosts) won't help you in that case, will it? You'll be sharing the same configuration as the main web server, and therefore run the risk of breaking it when you monkey with the options.

What do subdomains give you that a simple subdirectory wouldn't? (Other than maybe a shorter URL...)
