[users@httpd] Mod_rewrite - Removing www on dynamic domain names

[Chris tunnell <xi...@yahoo.com>]

The webserver I run has multiple domains.  To add
domains, I create a folder in /var/www/ for the
domain.  

On the apache side, I run this code so that I don't
have to create many virtual hosts:

RewriteMap  lowercase  int:tolower
RewriteCond  %{REQUEST_URI}  !^/icons/
RewriteCond  /var/www/${lowercase:%{SERVER_NAME}} -d
RewriteRule  ^/(.*)$ 
/var/www/${lowercase:%{SERVER_NAME}}/$1 [L]
RewriteCond  %{REQUEST_URI}  !^/icons/
RewriteRule  ^/(.*)$  /var/www/null/$1

How do I have it so that when somebody requests
www.foo.com, this links to /var/www/foo.com.  I cannot
figure out how to do this with regex though.  How can
I do this?

Removing the "www" is not preferred, but useable.

Thanks in advance for your responses!

I'd try something like this:
RewriteCond  %{REQUEST_URI}  !^/icons/
RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteCond  /var/www/${lowercase:%1} -d
RewriteRule  ^/(.*)$ /var/www/${lowercase:%1}/$1 [L]

Or you could just make symbolic links in the filesystem for the www
version.
