<VirtualHost 192.168.9.4>

     ServerAdmin webmaster at demo.room
     DocumentRoot /var/local/mirrors/linux/Fedora/
     ServerName fedora.demo.room

     ServerAlias fedora
     ErrorLog /var/log/apache/fedora-error_log
     CustomLog /var/log/apache/fedora-access_log common
<IfModule mod_proxy.c>
     #
     # Proxy Server directives. Uncomment the following lines to
     # enable the proxy server:

         Order deny,allow
         Deny from all
         Allow from 192.168.8.0/255.255.255.0

     </Directory>
