Yep it sure is.
the dns should look like this (I think)
host			IN	A 		193.X.X.X
www.mydomain	IN 	CNAME 	193.X.X.X


Here's how's mine are set up.

NameVirtualHost 192.X.X.X
<VirtualHost 192.X.X.X>DocumentRoot /path/to/web/page/htmlServerName
www.mydomain.com
ServerAdmin amk at broadcom.ieScriptAlias /cgi-bin/
/path/to/cgi-bin/ErrorLog /www/logs/error.log
TransferLog /www/logs/access.log
</VirtualHost>

And that's in the srm.con although you can put that in the httpd.conf
if you want.
What I think may be causing the problem is this.
You have named you 193.X.X.X as a virtual host when ther is no need.
Open up your httpd.conf and find the words "Document Root" (if it's a
redhat box then it will point to /home/httpd/html/)
Change that to where you want 193.X.X.X to go to and not where
MYDOMAIN.COM is pointing to.
Comment out this :(put a "#" in front of everything.)

>#NameVirtualHost 193.X.X.X
>
>#<VirtualHost 193.X.X.X>
>#ServerName 193.X.X.X
>#DocumentRoot /home/waynec/html
>#</VirtualHost>
That should be commented out 

And this should look like:

NameVirtualHost 193.X.X.X
<VirtualHost 193.X.X.X>DocumentRoot /home/Mydomain.com
ServerName www.mydomain.com
ServerAdmin you at yourdomain.ieScriptAlias /cgi-bin/
/path/to/cgi-bin/ErrorLog /www/logs/error.log
TransferLog /www/logs/access.log
</VirtualHost>

Any problems and you can phone me or I could phone you.

Hope it works as i think that is what is causing the problem.
