Since you asked so nicely.
You will be working with the host entries in the server.xml
From how I read this you want mycompany..com and .net pointing at the sameapp. You can do this either at the dns level or in the host entry with an alias. As for master slave the master will be the desired URL. If you want people to use .com the set it up as your main entry and the redirect in the dns or alias .net to it. This way when they get to the site the URL in the address will be .com
If the mycompany site is the default site, as it appears to be, any URL that points to the server IP that does not have a matching host entry will go to the mycompany site. So you could just point both mycompany urls to the IP and it will work. With this the URL will remain as typed .com or .net For public relations don't do this as confusion will result. Especially when it comes to email.
For the myapp.com add a new host entry under the existing Engine tag "like"
<Host appBase="webapps" name="www.myapp.com" debug="99">
<Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger" prefix="myapp_log." suffix=".txt" timestamp="true"/>
</Host>
Note logging will vary with version. Copy existing entry and modify.
In the myapp.xml for myapp.com, under the context tag change the path to be "".
My setup differs in that myapp.com for me uses a different appbase from webapps. So if something doesn't work hopefully someone can point out the error.

Subject: Re: Multiple domain names to a single site
Could anyone get me started on this please ? Paul Taylor wrote:
I have three domains
mycompany.com mycompany.net myapp.com
I have setup a website with a hosting provider using Tomcat 5 which contains the ROOT application and myapp application so currently
if user goes to http://mycompany.host/ they will go to ROOT application and if they go to http://mycompany.host/myapp it will go to myapp appliation.
I now want to change the dns records of my domains to point to my website.
My question is are all the domains equal or is there a concept of a master and aliases, i.e should I just change the nameservers of all three domains to use my hosts name servers or is it more complicated to that for example I could map mycompany.net to redirect to mycompany.com.
Also is it possible for myapp.com to go straight to the relvent application (http://mycompany.host/myapp) rather than the root application (http://mycompany.host/)
Thanks Paul
