aliasing question in UNIX

Katkota · #1 (**permalink**) 12-05-2007

Folks;
I know this might sound stupid, but Can i alias a web link to another web link in a UNIX server?

Let say i have a web link named http://test.new.com/wiki
Can i alias that so when i click on it or i type it in the browser address it opens but the link in the browser say something like: http://test.new.com (without the /wiki at the end)

Is that possible?

Help please

Yes, have a look at the apache documentation for mod_rewrite.
