If you're sending them to a specific IP, you can do this with your DNS 'A' record entries. But if you want to send it to something like a Geocities URL, you'd be better off making a virtual site (one meg will do) and doing a redirect with either frames or an .htaccess file.
Hey Carrie...You know this stuff better than I do, but: why not just use the "Redirect" directive in Apache? For example, whenever I have domain.com/net/org (all three), the first gets a virtual site and the other two get hand-added things in httpd.conf like:
<VirtualHost www.domain.net>
DomainAlias domain.net
DomainAdmin postmaster@xxxxxxxxxx
Redirect permanent http://www.domain.com
</VirtualHost>
and I'm done. Is nice enough to rewrite the address window while it's at it
so the user has a chance to notice that he should always be going to
domain.com anyway.
Note to anyone: THOSE ARE NOT EXACT TEXTS AND PROBABLY WILL NOT WORK. It's vaguely what I remember, although I can go get the exact text if someone wants/needs it.
