Here's your example you gave:

NameVirtualHost 192.168.2.50

<VirtualHost 192.168.2.50>
        ServerName www.domain1.com
        ServerAdmin wilsan816 at yahoo.com
        DocumentRoot /home/domain1/www
</VirtualHost>

Looks good, but check to make sure you have this module loaded somewhere:

LoadModule vhost_alias_module modules/mod_vhost_alias.so
AddModule mod_vhost_alias.c

And I would define each virtual host a directory by including the
following lines within each virtual host definition like you have above:

<VirtualHost 192.168.2.50>
        ServerName www.domain1.com
        ServerAdmin wilsan816 at yahoo.com
        DocumentRoot /home/domain1/www
        <Directory "/home/domain1/www/">
                AllowOverride none
        </Directory> 
</VirtualHost>

You can also specify the options each virtual host account can have,
etc...  I'm just comparing yours against an actual apache setup for
virtual hosting.

I'll second that.  I'm using dyndns.org and their service is superb.  
Very easy to use with a wealth of features to choose from.  Worth every
penny.
