I have the same problem with FTP and VHM. Zope2.6-Head, python2.1.3, 
Redhat 7.2.

What happens:

If I connect via "localhost:8021", the VHM gets "myvirtualserverdomain" 
as hostname already (I've inserted a "print host" statement to debug). 
So I think it's not a problem of the VHM-Code, because if the VHM sees 
"myvirtualserverdomain" as hostname already it should drop me into my 
virtual directory.

Maybe it's a ZServer-Bug or something strange with Redhat's resolving of 
hostnames.

I'll look deeper into it, but maybe there are others who encounter the 
same problem... other configs?
