You're looking for "name-based virtual hosts".  Since HTTP includes the 
domain you're requesting info from, you can assign multiple domains to the 
same IP, and the web server can tell one from the other.  If you're using 
apache, there may be examples in the config.  If not, there's examples on 
the apache page.
