[sllug-members]: Multiple Domains - Apache

[Matt Warnock]

Could be wrong, but here's what I think is happening.  First virtualhost
is www.domaina.com, so any access under www.domaina.com gets that one.
Second virtualhost is same but domainb, so far so good.  When any
hostname comes in that doesn't match either one, it gets served by the
first (default) virtualhost.  Hence the problem.

I think you need a domainalias statement.  My hosts all begin with: 
servername www.example.com
serveralias example.com *.example.com

That way the www is the canonical address for apache, but any request to
a host under that domain name, or no hostname at all, just the bare
domain name (provided DNS routes it there) will be served by that
virtualhost.
