The first component of a RewriteRule is a regex, so something like this 
should get you there (you were close).


RewriteRule ^/test.* http://tdocs.travelchannel.com/teams/Login.do

Now, this will redirect anything that starts with /test, so if you want 
to make sure the request is a directory, you can make it stricter as 
follows:

RewriteRule ^/test/.* http://tdocs.travelchannel.com/teams/Login.do
