Sorry - didn't see your complete response....... http://www.mrblue.com/mrblu <http://www.mrblue.com/mrblue>e - already goes to the mrblue context - i want http://www.mrblue.com<http://www.mrblue.com/mrblue>to go the mrblue context.
Thanks for the advise - it seems that I do need to set the ROOT webapp for each virtual server - anyone got any ideas of how to do this.
