So, one server can have several hostnames and IP address and each of those hosts can have application servers install on them? pretty much creating a DMZ out of one server, correct?
and this has nothing to do with virtualization, correct?
I am just trying to understand this diagram...

1 server can have severall ip address, your own PC has two ore more : 127.0.0.1 and 192.168.x.x (probably).
Each server application (like windows sharing folders) on your computer can listen on 1 or more interfaces (127.0.0.1 + 192.168.x.x + ...).
hostnames are much more complicated, 1 server can have multiple hostnames (or dns domains/ subdomains) and 1 domain/subdomain can point to multiple servers : load balancing, like google. google.com doesnt point to 1 unique server, for example.

thx flob9,
but, if you see a diagram with multiple hosts and ip address, and each of these hosts have several different server apps, is it save to assume virtualization?
how would you manage (tools) all these hosts, ip addresses, and app server installation to work as an DMZ without virtualization?

Safe to assume virtualization ? ... probably, but not sure.
I can setup a server with 2 ethernet cards (2 ip address), and bind apache 1 on 1 ip port 80, then apache 2 on the other ip port 80 ...
Another point: it is possible to bind several ip adresses on the same physical ethernet card, especially on linux systems (ip failover, etc ...). So its really hard to figure out if some host is virtualized or not.

ok. thx flob9,
let me ask you this... say your company just asked you download Cisco VPN Client and gave you instructions to connect. Once connected, what are you supposed to see?
wouldn't you see the desktop?
or do you need another application to see it using Cisco VPN client?
thx for clearing these doubts...
