[Koha] How to setup httpd.conf to use domain/opac instead of opac.domain or domain:port

[Michael Lake]

Hi all

I would like to have the opac served from the URL http://nsw.royalsoc.org.au/opac
instead of from a port say http://nsw.royalsoc.org.au:8000
The reason is that I have the Intranet being served from 8080 and although I can 
setup opac at say :8000 it's blocked from my work here and other ports such as 9000 
and many others are blocked. I know 80 and 8080 seem OK.

Hence I have setup the Intranet from :8080 and it works fine.
I'm having problems in working out how to get http://nsw.royalsoc.org.au/opac 
working. Note: I don't want to use http://opac.royalsoc.org.au/ as I'm using 
http://www.royalsoc.org.au/ and http://qld.royalsoc.org.au/ and so 
opac.royalsoc.org.au does not "fit in".

I thought that maybe an "Alias /opac /home/koha/koha/opac/htdocs" might work but I'm 
getting very confused with virtual domains, virt name hosting etc.

Some help in the config would be appreciated.

# Ports to listen to for Koha
Listen 80
Listen 8080
Listen 8000 <--- this is blocked so can't really use it
