hostname

I have the following folder structure on my apache!

.../var/www/www.x.tt/htdocs

.../var/www/www.y.tt/htdocs

I have defined a virtual host for each.

So if I type in www.x.tt in my browser I get to the www.x.tt site. And the same for www.y.tt.

But now my question! If I type in the server address or the server host name I get to the ../var/www directory but I want that the user will be redirected to the www.x.tt site!

Do I have to create a new virtual host for this problem or is it also possible only to add a .htaccess Rule?!

Thanks!
