title: what makes domain names point a specific folder?
body: <p>i'm working on a server that i inherited from someone, and i'm not a big expert on dns issues.
  the server hosts more than one domains, and they are all under a folder called /vhosts/. 
  i can't seem to understand how domains are pointing to their respective folder there. i checked httpd.config and there is no directive like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;VirtualHost *&gt;
  ServerName www.domain.tld
  DocumentRoot /www/domain
  &lt;/VirtualHost&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>i also checked the domain admin and they are all pointing to the server ip. so what am i missing?</p>
