Configure apache mod-vhost-alias

I was wondering if you could use a wildcard in the VirtualDocumentRoot directive. I mean is it possible to scan multiple directories with the VirtualDocumentRoot, like multiple home directories to look for sites?

Use of wildcards in the VirtualDocumentRoot directive is not possible using Apache 2.2.3.

A correct VirtualHost entry for HTTP requests looks like this:

<IfModule mod_vhost_alias.c>
  <VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAlias *
    UseCanonicalName Off
    LogFormat "%V %h %l %u %t \"%r\" %s %b" vcommon
    CustomLog /var/log/httpd/access_log vcommon
    VirtualDocumentRoot /var/www/vhosts/shared/%0
    VirtualScriptAlias  /var/www/vhosts/shared/%0
  </VirtualHost>
</IfModule>

This will serve a request to subdir.mydomain.com from the directory /var/www/vhosts/shared/subdir.mydomain.com

To serve HTTPS requests too, duplicate this and replace *:80 with *:81
