Considering they're identical? :) [I assume one of those should be foo]

How would you distinguish between the two? Would you have a directory
structure like:
.../webstuff/foo/joey/
.../webstuff/foo/foo/
.../webstuff/bar/bar/
If so, then you can just set the path for the 'UserDir' for each virtual
server seperately. Something like 'UserDir /whatever/path/webstuff/foo/'
in the foo virtualhost config and a similar one in the bar config will
do that. (Note that you could also set up the path itself as a 'symlink
forest' pointing to the real data elsewhere, which may be easier to set
up and maintain.)
If you want to do a db file (or even a program) like:
foo.com.db:
joey -> /home/joey/public_html
foo -> /home/foo/public_html
bar.com.db:
bar -> /home/bar/public_html
... then mod_rewrite is your answer. It would be a bit more complex to
set up (and not as 'self-documenting' as the directories are), but you
can do a bit more with it.
