Your virtual host directive should look something like

<VirtualHost *:80>

or something like that, I see that you are using :0, which I'm pretty 
sure is not a valid port number, and your server is probably not running 
on port 0, but rather 80 (unless you have changed this).  What would 
remove the warning would be to have a virtual host setup like:

<VirtualHost 216.107.115.123:0>
	ServerName thename.tld
	ServerAlias *.thename.tld
	ServerRoot /var/www/thename/
</VirtualHost>

For my NameVirtualHost I have:

NameVirtualHost *:80

And as a sample Virtual host I have:

<VirtualHost *:80>
        DocumentRoot /var/www/gender/html
        ServerAdmin jrasku@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ServerName genderoutlaws.com
        ServerAlias *.genderoutlaws.com
        DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.htm index.shtml
        ServerSignature email
        CustomLog logs/gender/access_log combined
</VirtualHost>

The *:80 for the NameVirtualHost means that it looks at port 80 on all 
IP addresses for name based virtual hosts.  This is the default 
behaviour when you are using name based virtual hosts.  This directive 
is by default commented out because many servers do not use any virtual 
hosting.

I hope that help.
