Description
===========

...

Options
=======

url.redirect
  redirects a set of URLs externally

  e.g. ::

    url.redirect = ( "^/show/([0-9]+)/([0-9]+)$" => "http://www.example.org/show.php?isdn=$1&page$2",
                     "^/get/([0-9]+)/([0-9]+)$"  => "http://www.example.org/get.php?isdn=$1&page$2" )

    # make a external redirect
    # from any www.host (with www.) to the host (without www.)
    $HTTP["host"] =~ "^www\.(.*)" {
      url.redirect = ( "^/(.*)" => "http://%1/$1" )
    }

Warning
=======

Do NOT use mod_redirect to protect specific urls, as the original url passed from the client
is matched against your rules, for example strings like "/abc/../xyz%2f/path".
