I'm hoping some linux gurus here can help me...  

My blog's address was http://www.noleftturns.com/vincent

I found out that If I name the directory vincent.noleftturns.com (instead of just "vincent") that the subdomain would automatically be created.  Ok, cool.  BUT, now all of my hardcoded links are broken (as well as any permalinks that people may have bookmarked.  I tried linking vincent to vincent.noleftturns.com, but that only seems to work when telnetting or FTPing.

it was: /public_html/vincent
it's now: /public_html/vincent.noleftturns.com




I also tried a redirect, but that didnt solve my problems with links.



This seemed to work for people who typed in http://www.noleftturns.com/vincent - but not when people did http://www.noleftturns.com/vincent/photoblog

I'm assuming I can use mod-rewrite to make all of this seamless, but POSTIX syntax makes my head spin.


Thanks if you can help!!

After a bit more trial and error I figured out that you need a trailing slash after the target.

ie:



and not:


It's always the little stuff.

Actually, this isn't working how I wanted it to.  links that point to the old "vincent" directory are now broken.

I tried the following mod-rewrite, and it didn't work.

Any sugesstions, anyone?
