ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/www.domain.com-error_log
CustomLog /var/log/httpd/www.domain.com-access_log common
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@domain.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/sub/html
ServerName sub.domain.com
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/sub.domain.
CustomLog /var/log/httpd/sub.domain.
</VirtualHost>

ex.
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@domain.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
ServerName www.domain.com

The first doamin listed is the default one so if you go to www.anything.com and that redirects via a cname or a address to your server but it is not listed it will go into the first one.
add a serveralias to the second one to catch it....
ServerAlias test.differentdomain.com
or even
ServerAlias *.differentdomain.com, differentdomain.com
The *. will miss it if they do not specify a subdomain so you would need this if they only went to http://differentdomain.com
so the config will now look like this :
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@domain.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
ServerName www.domain.com
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/www.domain.com-error_log
CustomLog /var/log/httpd/www.domain.com-access_log common
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@domain.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/sub/html
ServerName sub.domain.com
ServerAlias *.differentdomain.com, differentdomain.com
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/sub.domain.
CustomLog /var/log/httpd/sub.domain.

You also need to specify :
NameVirtualHost *:80
This is a required statement that enables name-based virtualhosting.
Please refer to Apache's documentation:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/core.html#namevirtualhost
