hey,

the subject says it all; I'd like to be able to redirect requests from
URLS of the form:

http://finance.mysite.com

to

http://www.mysite.com/finance

both to get rid of the dependency of having two separate machines and
to prevent users from typing extra characters..

Is there any quick way to do this? I'm not sure how to translate the
above into an apache rule to do the redirect..

Any would be appreciated..

Thanks,

jon

Well yes, but if you are typing in a url that you see in a magazine
you really don't have bookmarks, do you?

anyways, thanks for the response, I thought it was easy but I thought
I'd make sure..
