the default script alias for OTRS is http(s)://fqdn/otrs/index.pl where "otrs" 
is the script alias.
If you want to modify this you need to do this on several files which is not 
upgrade-save - so not recommended.

However, if there is a FQDN pointing to your servers IP and you want to have a 
script alias called "support" instead of "otrs" you need to modify the 
following (files):

/etc/apache2/conf.d/otrs.com (or whatever the fiel for OTRS is called)
    --> change all script alias from "otrs" to "support" and alias from 
"otrs-web" to "support-web"

$OTRS_HOME/Kernel/Config.pm and put in all Variables you need:
    --> 
    $Self->{'Frontend::WebPath'} =  '/support-web/';
    $Self->{'ScriptAlias'} =  'support/';
    $Self->{'FQDN'} =  'servername.domain.tld';
    $Self->{'SessionName'} =  'supportSession';
    $Self->{'CustomerPanelSessionName'} =  'supportCSID';


This should basically do the trick for your setup.
If you are running any mod_perl installation you also need to modify 
$OTRS_HOME/scripts/apache2-httpd-new.include.conf
