I'm back again and I'm real close to finishing up what I have started here.
I have implemented the following, while still keeping virtualdocumentroot in
place and it seems to work.
# ti_ is a login prefix
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^users.domain.tld$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/([^\/]+)(.*)$ /exports/home/domain.tld/users/ti_$1$2 [L]
My question now is one little thing that I forgot. I have horde/imp in place
on that server and the users will still need to access this using the alias
that I have already put in place some time ago. The rule above will basically
cancel that alias out as it will try to rewrite it to a different directory.
It's a shared install.
What would the rewrite condition look like in order to do the above yet skip
/horde and /mail?
