Feature #2138
Rewrite document-root for www-prefix
Description
I taught mod_simple_vhost a new config option, which allows to use the same document-root for domains with and without the leading www. Sure, you could use a symlink and allow symlink following by server.follow-symlink, but this new config option is more flexible even if it's not as clean as a permanent redirection. In my special case, I had to handle this redirection in the backend, and so I've added those few lines.

Can't this be done with aliasing?
Seems silly to hard-code this.

unclean patch; removes/adds strange things.

oh, and the correct solution in a config is imho to use http redirection to one case (either with or without www.)

Thanks for providing the patch which works for you.
However, providing a specific solution for 'www' is not generic, and what you are trying to do can be accomplished within lighttpd already, e.g. with redirection.
