alternatively, in just 1 second:

0) enable mass vhosting in your apache[1] - you only do this once

1) cp -R ~/webprojecttemplate /www/vhosts/mynewvhost

2) add mynewvhost to /etc/hosts

done.

5 seconds is over-estimated. As you can see (if you read the post), you just have to run one command for any new virtual host and no need to edit any conf file or hosts file ever.

But yeah, useful link. Thanks for that :)
