multi-domain to multiple roots & one rails-app

[B.R.]

I would avoid using alias since it's not mandatory:

server {
  listen 80;
  server_name ***; # I use one configuration file per domain and for
specific subdomains which have special requirements
  root /var/www/$host;
  index index.aaa index.bbb; # Depending on our needs
  try_files $uri $uri/ /;
}

If multiple place must serve the same content, I may then use symbolic
links in the file system.

For Rails, I can't give you advice.
