i'll second that recommendation to run 2 apaches.  I have some  
outdated instructions here:  http://dev.2xlp.com/trac/wiki/ 
FreeBsdApacheMultiServerSetupUsingStandardPorts -- should get you up  
and running quicker than the online docs.

personally, i just clone the necessary conf stuff, run everything off  
a dso

the manual copying stuff sounds crazy.  why not just use cvs?

i run all of my code straight out of svn

my desktop runs local code on a production branch
my dev server runs the production branch that i commit to

when stuff looks good:

	ssh dev_machine
	svn cp /path/to/project http://svnserver/project/tags/ 
Relase_Number__date

	ssh production_machine
	svn switch /path/to/project http://svnserver/project/tags/ 
Relase_Number__date

nothing crazy going on.  super simple to manage ( and it makes  
clustering a breeze! )
