Dave,
I'm sure you can understand my hesitation, though, right?  :)  And had you
been the host and your client was asking, you certainly wouldn't want anyone
telling him where to dig!!  *smile*
The closest thing that I can get to, never having seen a 'genuine' virtualip
file, is this:
/etc/names/records
This has a list of all of the DNS records on your machine, methinks if your
box was accepting hits for an IP, it would definitely be in here.

Other than that, check the basics:
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
And make sure that the GUI has taken out the site like it should have...

And are you sure it isn't your home/work machine who's cache is messed up?
For example, I recently assigned two sites to the same IP by mistake, and I
fixed it immediately, but my *home* machine had cached both of those sites
as being at that IP and caused me great frustration.

This is the simple stuff, there probably *is* an equivalent of virtualip on
the Cobalt somewhere and someone will be able to tell you where it is, but
perhaps this basic stuff that I know might shed some light on something or
at least give you a clue as to why this is happening.

Best of luck, and like I said - no offense meant  :)
