Adding real and virtual servers

I have 2 computer servers.
1 - WHS  mail.biggdog.biz
2 - Linux  sarah.biggdog.biz

1 =
Host - mail.biggdog.biz
plain HTTP
Port 80

2 =
Host - sarah.biggdog.biz
plain HTTP
Port 80

This looks like a problem already with the ports being the same.  Is this correct?

Also I want to have people to be able to connect to sarah.biggdog.biz on a different port for different things.
sarah.biggdog.biz:9999
sarah.biggdog.biz:8899
now the tricky part "for me"
sarah.biggdog.biz is also http://photos.readynas.com/sarah
how can I make this work?

With this how should I set up my virtual web servers as well?

Setup a "real" server for each actual webserver you have. Each of your ports would qualify as a unique webserver.
Setup a virtual webserver for each domain you want to be answered for.
Quick example from what you have posted.

Real:
mail.biggdog.biz:80
sarah.biggdog.biz:80
sarah.biggdog.biz:9999
sarah.biggdog.biz:8899

Virtual:
mail.biggdog.biz
sarah.biggdog.biz
domain2.biggdog.biz
domain3.biggdog.biz

Map:
mail.biggdog.biz -> mail.biggdog.biz:80
sarah.biggdog.biz -> sarah.biggdog.biz:80
domain2.biggdog.biz -> sarah.biggdog.biz:9999
domain3.biggdog.biz -> sarah.biggdog.biz:8899

As for "photos.readynas.com/sarah", I'll have to look into that one, as I only do pure domain name mapping.
If it helps, here is what mine looks like:

  Thanks for your reply.
  
  So I can and should create a real and a virtual web server for each different port going to that particular server???
