Easy Apache configuration question

I have an Apache2 server [:80] that acts as a proxy to a Tomcat server [:8180]

 

The Apache server is set up to use virtual hosts, which is working fine.

 

We just deployed a new application on Tomcat which creates a bunch of different URLs that point back to itself, like this:

 

http://joe-preview.foo.com/

http://tom-preview.foo.com/

etc.

The only difference is the user name in the first part of the domain name.

 

I *could* create a different ServerName and ProxyPass configuration for each and every user, but I suspect there's a better way to do that.

 

How can I get a virtual host to dynamically proxypass URLs to Tomcat?  What I want to have happen is this mapping:

http://joe-preview.foo.com/  -->  http://joe-preview.foo.com:8180/

http://tom-preview.foo.com/  --> http://tom-preview.foo.com:8180/

 

Thanks in advance!
