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.
