Hi, Jochen, thanks for the help. But, I think, unless I misunderstand, that virtual hosts are not the solution. Virtual hosts are defined by the Host element in server.xml. Hosts are parents to one or more web applications, each represented by a Context component. I can see nothing in a virual host that allows us to introduce the variable of a URL, e.g. www.aa.com versus www.bb.com, incoming to the site. However, since I am the one having the problem, maybe I misunderstand. Could you expand on how you think this solves the problem of mapping, e.g., the url www.aa.com to the application webapps/aa and the url www.bb.com to the application webapps/bb? Thanks.
