Set up for localhost virtual domains on Mac OS X, this doesn't cover the apache vhost setup, only the name lookup.

Ok, figured it out...Here's how to reorder name lookups in lookupd:
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK: READ 'man lookupd' FIRST!
Summary: As root, I created the directory /etc/lookupd, and created two files within that directory named 'global' and 'host' with the new lookup orders, and then restarted lookupd...
% su -
# mkdir /etc/lookupd
# cd /etc/lookupd
# echo "LookupOrder? CacheAgent? NIAgent? NILAgent?" > global
# echo "LookupOrder? CacheAgent? NIAgent? DNSAgent? NILAgent?" > hosts
# /System/Library/SystemConfiguration?/Kicker.bundle/Resources/restart-lookupd
That did it for me...now whatever network I connect to, my virtual hosts will resolve correctly.
Cheers!

Ugh. Wiki links break this. --pf, Mon, 19 Feb 2007 19:24:21 -0600 reply
Ignore the ? marks in the "echo" lines!! See the evolt.org link... Also 'restart-lookupd' doesn't exist in OS X 10.4. I'm using
kill -HUP cat /var/run/lookupd.pid
and then
lookupd -flushcache
