Hi Joshua,

Uhm, I did have a look at this prior to posting, I'm semi sure about the 
condition, but not sure at all about the actual rewrite....   I have the 
following in my little scratch pad:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteMap MyMap txt:the.file

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^${MyMap:%{HTTP_HOST}}$
RewriteRule ^(.{MyMap:%{HTTP_HOST}})$  <something here that is the value of 
the key>$1 [P]

Basically, anything to host 1, proxy to host 2..... The main reason wanting 
to use a external map, is so that we can add/remove/modify mappings on the 
fly without having to restart apache....
