I have recently configured Virtual Host in my Ubuntu 11.10. But whatever site i type, it always redirects to the localhost page.

This is my "our-test-site" file:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost

DocumentRoot /var/www/zftut/public
<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/zftut/public/>
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    allow from all
</Directory>

and this is my, "etc/hosts" file:

127.0.0.1   localhost
127.0.0.1   our-test-site.local
127.0.0.1   zftut.local
127.0.1.1   System.B    System

Now when I try to go for "zftut.local", it redirects me to localhost page, showing me this:

It works!

This is the default web page for this server.

The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet.

What am I doing wrong? I refered "this" tutorial for setting up virtual host.
