If you mean setting up multiple domains to be hosted on a single 
machine, with apache 2 it goes something like this:

<VirtualHost 192.168.254.4:80>

ServerName server1.example.com
ServerAdmin admin at example.com
ServerAlias *.example.com
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error.log

DocumentRoot /home/example
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/example/cgi-bin/
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl

<Directory "/home/example/cgi-bin">
     AllowOverride None
     Options +ExecCGI
     Order allow,deny
     Allow from all
</Directory>

<Directory "/home/example">
     Options Indexes FollowSymLinks +Includes
IndexOptions FancyIndexing VersionSort NameWidth=*
     XBitHack on
     Order allow,deny
     Allow from all

</Directory>

Just build a config for each domain and use the sites-enabled command to 
activate them.

Here's a link to a how-to that might be what you are looking for:
