While you are probably correct, the difference between the two would probably not be observable in any real-world situation. > b. Won't mod_rewrite issue some redirect (3xx) response when used?

In fact, it is better to use mod_rewrite if you already use a bunch of rewrite stuff, because that way the order of precedence of rules is more clearly definable. > If there are some reasons to use more then one mass > vhosting template, please give me an example, I dont want to overlook > something. This is all about local needs. Some people can't setup all their vhosts on the filesystem as required by mod_vhost_alias, for example. > > 2. How would you implement this?

(One thing I would do would be to forget about splitting by first letter. A modern filesystem can handle 500 directory entries with no problem. You only need to split if you have many thousands of hosts.)
