Here's a stanza from my virtual host config (one Virtual Host Monster
in the root of the ZODB, and apache running with mod_rewrite):

<VirtualHost www.cae.tntech.edu>
  ServerName www.cae.tntech.edu
  DocumentRoot /var/www
  Alias /spong/rrd /var/lib/spong/rrd/www/
  Alias /spong /usr/share/spong/www/

  <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteLog "/var/log/apache/rewrite_log"
    RewriteLogLevel 1
    RewriteRule ^/local/ - [L]
    RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://ch208h.cae.tntech.edu:9673/VirtualHostBase/http/www.cae.tntech.edu:80/CAE/VirtualHostRoot/$1 [e=HTTP_CGI_AUTHORIZATION:%1,P]
  </IfModule>
</VirtualHost>

In this case, everything on that site (with the exception of paths
beginning with /local/) is redirected to the CAE folder in the root of
my ZODB.
