redirect trailing slash problem

[Mike Soultanian <msoultan@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have a virtual host that accepts all traffic on port 80 and then 
forwards that traffic to another virtual host on port 81:

RewriteRule /(.*) http://localhost:81/$1 [P,L]

It works great except when I leave off the backslash.  So, for example, 
"http://foobar.com/"; works correctly and so does "http://foobar.com"; (no 
trailing slash).  However, if I add a folder without the slash (i.e. 
"http://foobar.com/folder";) , I get forwarded to 
"http://localhost:81/folder/"; instead of "http://foobar.com/folder";.

Does anyone know how to tweak my rewrite such that it will forward 
correctly, regardless of whether or not the folder has a trailing slash?

Thanks!
Mike
