I don't see the problem. This is exactly what apache does by default. The 
DocumentRoot directive maps the base URL of the site (bar.myhost.mydomain) onto 
a filesystem path (/var/www/bar) then any additional path information in the 
URL is simply appended to the DocumentRoot (bar.myhost.mydomain/path/ --> 
/var/www/bar/path/)

What have you tried? What went wrong? (include error-log messages)...

Rgds,
Owen Boyle
