What's wrong with it? Dynamic vhosting uses the filesystem as its
vhost database, so putting links in the filesystem seems like the
simplest and clearest way to link vhosts.
Yes, it can be done with mod_rewrite, but I don't see why you'd bother
with that extra complication. Something like:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^lx6.isu.edu$ [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) /var/www/www2d$1
