The problem here is that google may then start detecting each as different
sites, causing links to count towards the page ranks of the different
sites, etc.  I recommend using a permanent redirect, which google will see
and treat like a single site.

I always do:

   Redirect /(.*) http://www.blah.com/$1

so that the same URL on the other virtual sites just redirects to the same
page on the real site.

Thanks,
