I don't know where you got that info, but it's definitely wrong.

The actual path to a virtual site's 'home' directory is

	/home/sites/[home|siteX]/

which is symlinked to by the path

	/home/sites/www.example.com/

Under that are the web dir, users dir, log dir, and certs dir.

You can only reach a virtual directory by using it's "real" domain name 
-- www.example.com  etc

I have seen some people set up a redirect on the RaQ's "home" site to 
allow someone to reach a virtual domain before the DNS has completed 
propogating, and that solution looks similar to what you've listed.  But 
I don't think there's anything in the official RaQ docs that suggest you 
can do what you've listed.

What are you trying to do for your prospective customer?
