yikes. dont do anything you arn't confortable with. You need to do one
of two things: 

1) Follow John's advice, and use the apache manual(try www.apache.org)
for reference. Their virtual-host section is very helpful. or...

2) Do a google search for META redirect, and just put an index.html file
where the doc-root index is now to redirect to
/cgi-bin/catname/index.html. And forget about trying to do things the
hard way.

Good Luck.
