Help - Newbie Apache Question
Posted by Robert on June 17th, 2004

I need to config Apache (1.3) so that request "www.helloworld.com"
is rewriteen/redirected to "www.helloworld.com/welcome/home"

How is this normally done on Apache ? via Rewrite module ?
How to write the rewrite rule ?

Thanks for help
robert

You could use mod_rewrite but it's easier to do

Redirect / http://www.helloworld.com/welcome/home/

Not really necessary to use mod_rewrite for that either (although you
could), I think a simple alias should cover it:

Alias /users/robert/some_cgi_call /real/filesystem/path/to/some_cgi_call
