Here's what I did.  do an in address on the other domains to point to the
main domain.  Then in your httpd.conf file add 2 virt servers pointing to
the main about so:

<VirtualHost 000.111.222.333>
ServerName www.domian2or3.com
ServerAdmin admin
DocumentRoot /home/sites/site##/web
ServerAlias domain1.com
RewriteEngine off
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}                !^000.111.222.333(:80)?$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}
!^www.commercialroofingsystems.com(:80)?$
RewriteRule ^/(.*)                      http://www.domain1.com/$1 [L,R]
RewriteOptions inherit
AliasMatch ^/~([^/]+)(/(.*))? /home/sites/site#/users/$1/web/$3
AliasMatch ^/users/([^/]+)(/(.*))? /home/sites/site#/users/$1/web/$3
AddHandler cgi-wrapper .cgi
AddHandler cgi-wrapper .pl
AddHandler server-parsed .shtml
AddType    text/html     .shtml
</VirtualHost>

and then again for the 3rd domain.  It will take a bit for propagation but
no biggie.

This worked fine for me and should do you ok as well.
