$ mkdir ~/code 
$ touch ~/code/apache-settings/httpd-vhosts.conf 
$ sudo ln -s ~/code/apache-settings/httpd-vhosts.conf /etc/apache2/other 
$ mkdir ~/code/apache-settings/logs 
$ chmod 0777 ~/code/apache-settings/logs



# 
# Use name-based virtual hosting. 
# 
NameVirtualHost *:80 

# 
# Set up permissions for VirtualHosts in ~/code 
# 
<Directory "/Users/name/code"> 
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews 
    AllowOverride All 
    Order allow,deny 
    Allow from all 
</Directory> 

# For http://localhost in the OS X default location 
<VirtualHost _default_:80> 
    ServerName localhost 
    DocumentRoot /Library/WebServer/Documents 
</VirtualHost> 

# 
# VirtualHosts below

## Template 
#<VirtualHost *:80> 
#    ServerName domain.local 
#    CustomLog "/Users/name/code/logs/apache-settings/domain.local-access_log" combined 
#    ErrorLog "/Users/name/code/logs/apache-settings/domain.local-error_log"
