I will take a look at mod_rewrite. As far as alpha. Let's say that someone enters the alpha site passing parameters through the URL, a post, or even just header variables. I want the ability to have the filter look at any of those different ways and get the value of the variable. So let's say that someone enters the alpha url via a POST that has a variable of user. If user equals Anthony, I should redirect them to beta. If user equals Josh, I should checked to see if they are logged on and then let them through or send them to a login page. I basically want a way to provide some control/security over all the sites without have the sites modified. -----Original Message----- From: jslive@xxxxxxxxx [mailto:jslive@xxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Joshua Slive Sent: Tuesday, August 22, 2006 5:02 PM To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [users@httpd] Filters in Apache?

Probably with mod_rewrite, but your requirements above are not very clear. Beta and gamma are certainly possible, but I don't know what you mean by "a certain variable" nor what you want to do with it.
