when it happens in vhost context, rewrite happens in an early phase of apache processing. when it happens in per-dir context, it happens in a late phase and causes the request to be restarted after the substituion. so there are lots of opportunities for them to work differently. 99%of the time the per-vhost one is more intuitive / easier to deal with. -- Eric Covener cove...@gmail.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
