RE: [cobalt-users] Domain aliasing - RaQ4

["Tom Cameron" <tom@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I believe Carrie is right here. I have the same problem with this rewriting
behaviour. I dont want to turn rewrite off becaues I use it for other
purposes. I usually comment these lines out for the particular host.

I have asked this group before with no response though....
why is this rewrite rule there in the first place?
and what other implications are there if I remove it? And lastly,
what is the script that creates these rules so I can stop it from doing it
in the first place?

I particularly dont like this behaviour and wish to stop it all together.

=> RewriteEngine on
=> RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}                !^XXX.XX.XXX.XX(:80)?$
=> RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}                !^www.mydomain.com(:80)?$
=> RewriteRule ^/(.*)                      http://www.mydomain.com/$1 [L,R]
=> RewriteOptions inherit
