I usually use an A record instead to point a domain at another site.
Then you can put that domain into an include file in the httpd.conf file
to point the domain to either the same site or to a sub-directory.
Search the archives for: include.conf.
If the site you're pointing to is on a unique IP, then you shouldn't
need the httpd.conf changes.
The RaQs are known to handle CNAME a little differently and it has
caused some mail problems for people.
