After installing VM pro on mycompany.com and creating virtual zones, mycompany2.com, mycompany3.com, I am unable to access the default web pages by using the ip numbers (static). Where is this problem addressed in either VM configuration or WM configuration?
When Apache is virtual hosting, the concept of "Default" goes away. The first virtual host listed in your httpd.conf or the alphanumerically sorted first one in /etc/apache2/sites-available on Debian/Ubuntu systems becomes the "default". Virtualmin doesn't pay any attention to this detail--it's for virtual hosting, and doesn't believe in the existence of "default" anything. IP addresses are for machines to think about, not humans. ;-)
But, you can manually change the order and Virtualmin won't mind, and will respect it. I don't think there will be any trouble on Debian/Ubuntu, either, if you just rename the one you want to be "default" to 00-blahblah, forcing it to come first in the alphanum sort.

I can type in mycompany.com and mycompany1.com, etc and get a webpage that I can configure and change (or not)from within virtualmin. I should get something when I type in the ip number of that server.I see why I won't get the virtual server webpage but I should and would like to get something. Also I can't access webmin from outside the network. Where can I change this from within webmin or virtualmin.

You will get something: The first VirtualHost defined in Apache that matches the qualifications of the request (so, it'll have to be the IP that is in the VirtualHost definition).

You probably can't...Webmin, by default, is accessible on all IP addresses on the system. You've either got a firewall or router outside of the Virtualmin system that is preventing access, or you've got a local iptables firewall that has been added or modified after Virtualmin installation (we open port 10000 during installation). You need to allow port 10000 wherever it is being blocked...

It was a firewall issue with port 10000, thanks.
If I type in the IP (where I have the domains on) I get to see the first domain I created.
Not sure why you don't get anything but if you also can't access outside the network, this might be a firewall/routering issue.
