Nicholas!
did you try michaelsrogers.com or .net, I have two domain
names.
look at this and tell me what I did wrong. I find
that on my network I can also type "laptop-1" and still see the
page.
# ServerName gives the name and port that the server uses
to identify itself. # This can often be determined automatically, but we
recommend you specify # it explicitly to prevent problems during
startup. # # If your host doesn't have a registered DNS name, enter its IP
address here. # #ServerName localhost ServerName
10.0.0.101
One thing is I am not understanding the "your host" does
this mean "me" as in my computer or the ISPs computer where the names server
is?

I missed the fact that you were testing from your
internal network. In that case, you need to use the suggestions from Razi
Khaja to be able to access your site using that name locally. However, the
two suggestions I made could be affecting external connectivity (I get
"connection refused" for your site at the moment, but perhaps you have
just shut down Apache).
