[users@httpd] rewrite redirect advise

[Norman Khine <no...@khine.net>]

hello,
i have a drupal site within which there is a folder with wordpress so
http://mysite/blog loads the wordpress.

i want to take this out completely so the http://blog.mysite is in its own vhost

is it possible in for the http://mysite to add a rewirite so that if a
user types http://mysite.com/blog it is rewritten to
http://blog.mysite.com

i have this:
# Various rewrite rules.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

  RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mysite\.com\/blog$ [NC]
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://blog.mysite.com$1 [L,R=301]

is this correct way to do this?

thnks

I think that simple directive should work:
Redirect temp /blog http://blog.mysite.com/

Well, if you expect people put anything after the /blog, this will redirect
/blogger to blog.mysite.comger , to avoid this you can use:

RedirectMatch temp ^/blog$ http://blog.mysite.com/
RedirectMatch temp ^/blog/(.*) http://blog.mysite.com/$1

I hope it's clear enough.

the HTTP Host: will NEVER contain the "/blog" part.
