I'm not sure I understand why we need two virtual hosts.  What is wrong or
undesirable about a single host, with an intranet branch that is password
protected, and an OPAC branch that isn't?   Simply the fact that scripts
live in cgi-bin/koha and cgi-bin/opac seems to indicate that it was 
originally designed for a single host.  Is there a good reason to
perpetuate the virtual dual host setup?  I'm not perceiving one.
