Solaris 2.5.1, apache 1.3.3 w/the following modules enabled:

>Description:
Using [L] on a RewriteRule doesn't work.

See section on How to Duplicate.
>How-To-Repeat:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteOptions inherit
RewriteLog logs/rewrite_log
RewriteLogLevel 3

# Redirect end-user '~/usrID' page requests to main WWW server...
RewriteRule ^/~(.+) http://www.fccj.org/~$1 [L]

# Pass-thru 'Local Resource' to current WWW server...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !-U
RewriteRule   ^(.+)  -  [L]


# Redirect 'Resource Not Found' to main WWW server...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} -U
RewriteRule ^(.+) http://www.fccj.org$1 [L]
>Fix:
No, but I am wondering if mod_perl is planning on
superceding the mod_rfewrite mod_rewrite module ?
