Apache Tomcat 7 on windows 2008: how to host mutiple domains

Hi there,
I’m new to Apache Tomcat. I have been asked to point new domain name to the existing domain name. E.g. We have https://xyz.abc.com, we want new domain name http://123.abc.com to point to xyz.abc.com. The Apache Tomcat 7 server is installed Windows 2008 R2 server. We have created the DNS entry for 123.abc.com Can someone tell me how to do this? Do I need to create a virtual host and if so how. How do I restart tomcat server on windows 2008 R2? 
I read that if I modify server.xml then I need to restart Tomcat. How do I restart Tomcat? 
I have a following entry in config/server.xml file:<Host name="localhost"  appBase="webapps" unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true">
  <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve" directory="logs"
           prefix="localhost_access_log." suffix=".txt"
           pattern="%h %l %u %t &quot;%r&quot; %s %b" />
  </Host>
Thanks 

Joe

What is the defaultHost setting for the enclosing <Engine>? You might
not even need all of those <Alias> entries.

You should not have <Context> elements configured in your server.xml.
Instead, please put your <Context> elements into individual files in
conf/[engine]/[host]/[appname].xml

Will this work. I want 123.abc.com to go to xyz.abc.com. So 123.abc.com is
an alias for xyz.abc.com. Both the sites are pointing to the same appbase.

<Host name="www.knowledgefolders.com" 
  appBase="D:/webpage_demos/akc"
  unpackWARs="true" 
  autoDeploy="true" 
  xmlValidation="false" 
  xmlNamespaceAware="false">

   <Alias>knowledgefolders.com</Alias>

   <Alias>www.knowledgefolders.net</Alias>
   <Alias>knowledgefolders.net</Alias>

   <Alias>www.knowledgefolders.org</Alias>
   <Alias>knowledgefolders.org</Alias>

   <Alias>www.satyakomatineni.com</Alias>
   <Alias>www.kavithakomatineni.com</Alias>

   <Context path="" docBase="D:/webpage_demos/akc" 
       debug="0" reloadable="false"/>
   <Context path="/akc" docBase="D:/webpage_demos/akc" 
      debug="0" reloadable="false"/>
</Host>

Notice how all of the following host names point to the same web app, akc
(which was the previous name for Knowledge Folders).

knowledgefolders.com
www.knowledgefolders.com
knowledgefolders.net
www.knowledgefolders.net
knowledgefolders.org
www.knowledgefolders.org
www.satyakomatineni.com
www.kavithakomatineni.com
