First of all, I am very proficient with DNS; that was not the question.  I
want users who go to http://name.domain/webapps to have the same
webappdeployment as http://name2.domain/webapps.  It is important that
however they got there (domain prefix) be maintained throughout their
session.  This works fine for static content, but as soon as anyone goes to
http://name?.domain/webapps they get redirected over to
http://ServerName/webapps.  ServerName is defined within the apache
httpd.conf file (same with vitualhost name).  That is not good.  There has
to be a way to have either virtual hosts or some method for tomcat to serve
the same dynamic content regardless of how they got there without
redirecting.  

Any one know how to accomplish this?

No. I use A and CNAMES depending on the situation.  Do you have proper
aliases set up in Apache?

I think I have the same problems...
So, how do you set up virtual hosts in Tomcat?
I have tried to have <Host ../> elements in a Tomcat service and I used
CNAMEs
in them. It seemed that any hosts in the service would resolve to the same
contexts contained in the service (even though I have supplied different
URLs;
ie: different FQDNs).

I guess the answer would be: just use A records (that point to the same IP
number). Is it correct...?
