    Install your demo system from Apache source in /usr/local/apache, and make
    sure it uses a different port, log & pid files, etc.

    Impossible. IPTables works at too low of a level to see the hostname in
    the request sent to the server. What you need is a reverse proxy. I know
    Squid can be used for this, but I've never done it, so I can't give you
    any advice on how to go about it.
