A strange DNS behavior

Hi all,
I'm troubling with my ojs installation domain and virtual hosts.

So, let's explain.

I've a server with OJS under an institutional domain:
www.plataform.institution.it

That has some reviews inside, for example:
http://www.plataform.institution.it/index.php/reviewOne
http://www.plataform.institution.it/index.php/reviewTwo
http://www.plataform.institution.it/index.php/reviewThree
...

Now I want to have a domain name for each review, so I asked to the university computer centre to point the addresses:
www.reviewOne.institution.it
www.reviewTwo.institution.it
www.reviewThree.institution.it

to my server IP.

They did it, then i set up a vhost for each review like this:

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName www.reviewOne.institution.it
        DocumentRoot /my_ojs_host_path
        RedirectMatch /$ /index.php/reviewOne
</VirtualHost>

Now, everything seems to work well, the address:
www.reviewOne.institution.it
opens OJS instance for reviewOne:
www.reviewOne.institution.it/index.php/reviewOne

The problem is that any vhost address can open also all other reviews:

Let's see:

the plataform is:
www.serena.unina.it

a review example is:
www.serena.unina.it/index.php/politics

with this url:
www.politics.unina.it

But if you call the instance of an other review it works instead to have a 404.

Try:
http://www.politics.unina.it/index.php/rth

this is an other review: http://www.rth.unina.it/

Has someone experienced the same problem and found a solution?

Thanks,
Alfredo
