add a server alias to the domain's VHOST?

I have a VPS. I hosted a domain ipointing to a sub directory of the www folder. The domain works fine till the home page. The moment I start going to other pages its shows my servers [orginalname]/[subdirectory name] . I think I need to add a server alias to the domain's VHOST. Can anyone tell me how to do that??

I did it using the proxy Apache option, this is it:

My VirtualHost is http://dlx/ and I want to add an "alias" like http://dlx/drupal/

In the httpd.config file I added a proxy configuration:

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1>
ServerName dlx
DocumentRoot "C:/deluxe/"
<LocationMatch /drupal/>
ProxyPass               http://localhost/drupal/
ProxyPassReverse        http://localhost/drupal/
</LocationMatch>
</VirtualHost>

Configure .htaccess on my dlx virtualhost (C:/deluxe/):

    RewriteRule ^drupal/(.*)$ http://localhost/drupal/$1 [P,L]

That's it. It works for me, I hope it also works for you.

Are you using Apache? Try with

<VirtualHost *:80>
   DocumentRoot "/path/to/document/root"
   ServerName name1
   ServerAlias name2
