} how do you accomplish this? I assume it can be done somehow.
In addition to using mod_minivend, previosuly suggested, you can do this
with Apache rewrite rules in the VirtualHost directive for yourdomain.com:
<VirtualHost a.b.c.d>
ServerAdmin support@mainhost.com
DocumentRoot /home/httpd/html/yourstore
ServerName www.yourdomain.com
ErrorLog logs/yourdomain-error_log
CustomLog logs/yourdomain-access_log common
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/home/httpd/cgi-bin/"
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^$ /cgi-bin/yourstore/index.html [PT,L]
RewriteRule ^/$ /cgi-bin/yourstore/index.html [PT,L]
RewriteRule ^/index\.html$ /cgi-bin/yourstore/index.html [PT,L]
RewriteRule ^/cgi-bin/yourstore/.* - [PT,L]
RewriteRule ^/(.*) /cgi-bin/yourstore/$1 [PT,L]
</VirtualHost>
I just did this for a client and it works quite well (as long as you're
using a fairly recent version of Apache as your webserver).
