Thanks that did the trick...oh I forgot one other possibility:
abc.domain.com/xyz -> /home/www/xyz
(perhaps a rewrite to xyz.domain.com as well)

The default virtual host is the first one (the one with DocumentRoot
/var/www/html in your case). When you access http://xyz, you are
accessing a site which is not matched by any virtual host, therefore
Apache shows the default virtual host. Adding a "ServerAlias xyz"
below "ServerName xyz.domain.com" should fix it.
