If they are, then a ServerAlias is what you need. If not, a proxy will be required.

RE: [users@httpd] Redirecting a domain to another using Rewrite rules
Thx for the tip, but it doesn't seem to work. For example, I just tried this: --- Redirect / http://wiki-translation.wiki4us.com/ --- When I try to go to www.wiki-translation.com, I see the url wiki-translation.wiki4us.com in the browser (which is not what I want... I want to keep the original www.wiki-translation.com url). In addition, I get: --- The page isn't redirecting properly Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete. --- Alain - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@httpd.apache.org

Why would you use a RewriteRule when you could simply use a Redirect? In case you are not aware of this, it is documented here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_alias.html#redirect Pete -- Openstrike - improving business through open source http://www.openstrike.co.uk/ or call 01722 770036 / 07092 020107 pgp3W8ENxSOa6.pgp Description: PGP signature
[users@httpd] Redirecting a domain to another using Rewrite rules
I need to forward a domain www.wiki-translation.com to a different location
wiki-translation.wiki4us.com, while preserving the original url.
I have been trying to do this for 30 mins now, using Rewrite rules, and nothing
works.
For example, thje Parked domains CPanel functionality created the following
lines in my .htaccess file:
---
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^wiki\-translation\.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.wiki\-translation\.com$
RewriteRule ^/?$ "http\:\/\/wiki\-translation\.wiki4us\.com\/" [R=301,L]
---
This works somewhat, in the sense that it redirects www.wiki-translation.com to
wiki-translation.wiki4us.com. But it does not preserve the original URL.
I also tried this replacing the R flag with a P (proxy) flag:
---
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^wiki\-translation\.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.wiki\-translation\.com$
RewriteRule ^/?$ "http\:\/\/wiki\-translation\.wiki4us\.com\/" [R=301,L]
---
But it yields the error:
---
Proxy Error
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /.
Reason: DNS lookup failure for: wiki-translation.wiki4us.com
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an
ErrorDocument to handle the request.
---
Then I tried this
---
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^wiki\-translation\.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.wiki\-translation\.com$
RewriteRule ^/?$ "http\:\/\/www\.wiki4us\.com\/wiki\-translation\/" [P,L]
---
where www.wiki4us.com/wiki-translation/ is the actual location that the
subdomain wiki-translation.wiki4us.com points to.
This one worked kindof. It does point to the right location, and preserves the
original url www.wiki-translation.com. But the page comes out looking wrong,
presumably because all the CSS files are not accesible as
www.wiki4us.com/wiki-translation/*.css (just as
wiki-translation.wiki4us.com/*.css). Dunno why.
Any advice you may have will be greatly appreciated.
Thx.
