Hi, Thanks, What is an internal re-direct? What I presume happens is that once all the rewrite rules are processed and we are left with the final URI apache goes to fetch that and in doing so starts the whole process off again. Is this right? If it is then what is happening is that it will loop through the top rule untill there are no more 'joe's. Then because the pattern doesn't match the [L] doesn't take effect, so it loops the bottom rule and changes all the lukes to alans. Right?
