Thanks Tom for the reply,
I'll have to look up how to whack up the log level and where to find the
whacked up rewrite log :) Seriously, though, I don't know what log
level we need to be at to get a rewrite log or whether or not I need to
specify a rewrite log location.
I used LocationMatch because I will have users coming in on lets say
these 3 "like" urls:
https://yippidy.doodaa.com:8543/pls/test/something.something/moreofstuff
Idon'tknow
https://yippidy.doodaa.com:8643/pls/devl/something.something/moreofstuff
Idon'tknow
https://yippidy.doodaa.com:8743/pls/prod/something.something/moreofstuff
Idon'tknow
Notice the differences in ports and the only difference in the url being
the port and the test/devl/prod. There might be a firewall that sits in
front that only allows world access to prod's port, whereas test and
devl access stay on the local lan.
Nothing in the application will prevent a user from typing in "test" on
the "prod" port and successfully gain access to the test side from
outside the local lan.
So a simple "fix", at least to me, was to test to see if they were
coming in on a "prod" url, make sure it is on the prod port, and if not,
simply rewrite it to be so. If they were coming in on a "test" url but
on the prod port, it'd get rewritten to test's port and the firewall
would prevent access if they were outside the local lan. If it's just
as easy to do that with rewrite conditions, I'm all ears, but I could
really use the help with syntax, I'm just a lowly Oracle DBA :)

Why a LocationMatch, instead of a RewriteCond ? Does it work with a
RewriteCond? (With LocationMatch, we have to think "did we trigger the
location match? If we did, did our RewriteRule match?", with
RewriteCond, all we have to think is "Did our cond match, what happened
when our rewrite happened", all of which can be answered by whacking on
the rewrite log and whacking up the log level.)
