Apache, website - forwarding/redirect/rewrite

[upengan78]

Hi,

I don't know what to call it forwarding. redirect or rewrite..I want to achieve something like below with simple configuration and if possible only in apache2 , http.conf

Any request to "www.domain.com/abc" should go to "www.domain.com/~blah"

www.domain.com/~blah works.

I know I can create "/var/www/apache/localhost/abc" folder and then either an index.html with some code or a .htaccess inside folder "abc" to achieve the result.

Is there anyway I can achieve same w/o even creating abc directory?

Thanks,

I think I can do this like below,

vi /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/default_vhost.include
