AFAIK, it is passing what I am/was telling it in default.vcl.  The  
localhost trumps the orginal named base vhost for apache and that is  
what my configuration file was asking for.  So it is correct but not  
what I'm trying to do;)

backend default {
   set backend.host = "127.0.0.1";
   set backend.port = "8080";
}

What I am trying to do is to get it to pass something like:

   set backend.host = req.http.host;

Which, from my limited perspective, would be a solution for this vhost  
issue although there are probably others and hopefully better and/or  
simpler options.

Thanks again, DES, for spending time on this somewhat trivial issue  
that I'm having with my learning curve.
