Hi,
Please, if you don't have the time to fix it or it's low priority let me
know which classes control this behavior so I could try to fix it myself.

Thanks in advance,
 deacon Marcus

 Subject: Problems with aliased hosts (ver 4.0b5)


 Hi,
 I have:
   Host name=d1.test debug=0 appBase=/server/domains/d1.test/http
 unpackWARs=true
 Alias name=d2.test /
 in my server.xml. The goal is to have urls http://d1.test/; and
 http://d2.test; pointing at the same webapp, with shared
 application-scope
 objects, etc. Something like being able to get www.something.com and
 something.com being equals. The problem is, while d1.test works exactly as
 it should, d2.test gives me the default host (tomcat's docs in
 this case). I
 have the same problem on tomcat 4.0b3 + win 98/se, 4.0b5 + win 98/se, and
 4.0b5 + redhat 7.1, with jdk 1.3 and jdk 1.4. d1.test and d2.test are
 aliases for 127.0.0.1 in /etc/hosts and /windows/hosts depending on
 platform.

 I hope I'm wrong, but it looks like Alias/ is just not implemented ??

 Is this a known problem? Is there any workaround? Could someone give me
 working example of such configuration? This is critical to me, I have to
 have it working next week.

 Thanks in advance,
  deacon Marcus

Oops, sorry. It's the J1 effect : don't put any urgent requests that week.
I think you should have filed a bug.

The host mapping is done in 
org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngine/StandardEngineMapper.

It may be a problem at init (maybe the alias list is incorrectly initialized) 
or runtime.
