---------------

        At this point, you're probably wondering just how in the world
        any of this helps you.  You're certainly not going to ask
        people to use their browser to visit a URL like
        'http://yourserver.com//VirtualHostBase/http/zope.com/vhm_test/VirtualHostRoot/'
        just so your Zope-generated URLs will be "right".  That would
        defeat the pupose of virtual hosting entirely.  The answer is:
        don't ask humans to do it, ask your computer to do it.  There
        are two common (but mutually excusive) ways to accomplish
        this: via the VirtualHostMonster *Mappings* tab and via Apache
        "rewrite rules" (or your webserver's facility to do the same
        thing if you don't use Apache).  Be warned: use either one of
        these facilities or the other but not both or very strange
        things may start to happen.  We give examples of using both
        facilities below.

           should be

           http://yourserver.com/VirtualHostBase (only one slash)
