this is easy, it's called virtual hosting

<VirtualHost YOUR_IP_ADDRESS>
ServerAdmin webmaster@yourdomain
ServerName www.myweb.com
ServerAlias www
DocumentRoot /home/user/public_html
</VirtualHost>

you can also do on the "main" server to redirect requests for ~mypage
to your domain:

RedirectMatch /~myuser(.*)\.*$ http://www.myweb.com

be sure to restart apache after updating the config:

apachectl configtest
(if it checks out then..)
apachectl restart

If you add more then 1 virtual host for each IP on your system you
need to add the directive

NameVirtualHost YOUR_IP_ADDRESS

above the virst <VirtualHost YOUR_IP_ADDRESS> entry. you only need
1 instance of NameVirtualHost.
