Hi,
I'm sorry for the n00b question, but this is the first time that I need to configure Apache myself and I can't seem to get my configuration right.
I want to set up a webserver hosting a site (/home/user/www/website) under a subdomain:
website.example.org
I have a default Ubuntu 12.10 installation and have copied the default configuration in /etc/apache2/sites-available to user-site. I modified both (only the first few lines defining the ServerName/ServerAlias and DocumentRoot) using the Apache documentation.
[Configurations are below this e-mail]
When surfing to
www.example.org I see the catch-all website, but any other subdomain goes to the main website.
Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong?
Kind regards,
Niels R.

This is the default configuration (acting as the catch-all):
<VirtualHost *:80>

</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/
<Directory "/usr/lib/cgi-bin">

Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
