Thank you Frank.
That does look like it will do exactly what I want it to do. I am having
trouble implementing it. In our development instance I created a .htaccess file
with:
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options +MultiViews
</IfModule>
But when I try to browse to that directory I get a 500 error. I checked and
mod_negotiation is loaded globally. So what am I doing wrong?
I am planning on implementing it as part of a Directory definition in my
production environment.

Subject: Re: [users@httpd] I need help with a rewrite request
You don't need to use mod_rewrite, a simpler solution is to use multiviews:

I have just received a request to rewrite everything

http://school.northwestern.edu/faculty/name.html I believe I can bury this rule
in a directory declaration for the faculty directory but I am having problems
writing the exact rules to make the transform happen. My stumbling block is I
do very few new rewrite rules. Most are simple modifications of existing rules.
Please help.
