ip vhosts and localhosts

ok heres the deal
at work i have a windows box running apache 1.3.28 with local ip
192.168.100.1 which will herein be referred to as "Steve".
i use apache on that box for development purposes
i have an adsl connection with static ip 1.2.3.4 and a dlink dsl-504
modem/router which i use for NAT and which has a redirect for port 80 to
192.168.100.1
at home i have a pc that has internet access which will herein be referred
to as "Reginald".

i want to be able to type in 'localhost' into my browser on "Steve" and have
apache take me to my development folder. it already does this.
i want to be able to type in 1.2.3.4 into my browser on "Reginald" and have
the apache server on "Steve" take me to the folder /shared which is in the
development folder. it does not do this.

i am assuming that an ip based virtualhost is the way to go, but at the
moment it serves the same page to "Reginald" as it does to "Steve".
can anyone suggest a virtualhost config i could use or is there another
apache directive i have not set properly?

thanks in advance.

Not knowing what you already did is quite difficult to say what you
did wrong. If you want to use IPs instead of domain names (why?),
then IP-based v-host is the way to go. Read the documentation on
<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://www.apache.org" target="_blank">www.apache.org</a> and check your configuration.
