Definition of a Server
Servers can exist as either a "Virtual Server" or a "Physical Server". A physical server is any platform running the HTTPD server daemon. Any platform running multiple HTTPD daemons off of separate ports are viewed as separate machines. A virtual server is any organization or division within an organization hosting a homepage, whether that homepage is on a separate platform or on a physical server with other homepages.

Physical Servers hosting multiple virtual servers should use subdirectories for each virtual server.
