All of the examples on that page that use NameVirtualHost are actually
*doing* name-based virtual hosting, which is where you have multiple virtual
hosts with the same IP/port combination (thus the only thing that
distinguishes them is their name, as given in the Host: HTTP header).

You're doing IP-based virtual hosting, not named-based virtual hosting.
(You only have one virtual host per IP/port combination.)  Thus you don't
need NameVirtualHost.  If you scroll down in the page you gave, you'll see
an example of IP-based virtual hosting, and note that it does *not* include
any NameVirtualHost directives.

Hope this helps,
