So, ignoring the port restriction, let's say I want to have (locally)
"http://admin.mysite:8080/page1.cfm"; represent "http://localhost:8080/
openbd/mysite/admin/page1.cfm".  How would I do this in Tomcat?

I tried creating a Host named "admin.mysite" in server.xml whose
appBase is "webapps/openbd/mysite/admin", but this doesn't seem to
work.

If I create an Alias in the localhost Host in server.xml, that only
gives me an alternate name for localhost, not a shortcut to lower
directories, correct?

I can create a Context in the localhost Host to shortcut my path, but
I must still begin with "http://localhost:8080/..."; which I suppose is
close enough, but I'd still love to figure out how to have "http://
mysite" point to a directory within "http://localhost/openbd";.
