The redirect target should also include the protocol and hostname.
This redirect must be placed before any non-www/www redirect code.
Both of these things avoid introducing an unwanted multiple step redirection chain.

Hi mudloop
rewriterule ^connect/connect/(.*) http://hostname/connect/$1 [L,R=301]
Is what g1smd means. [edited by: engine at 9:56 am (utc) on Jan 10, 2012]

Thanks for the reply. It's not functioning as it should though, but I suspect rewrite has been disabled on the server. I've asked the administrator, waiting for his reply.
Curious, what does the [L,R=301] part mean?

It means you need to do some background reading [httpd.apache.org]. Really.
What happens when you say
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^connect/(connect/.*) http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301]
? "Not functioning as it should" implies that it is functioning in some other way. Which is always interesting.
Notice how by capturing the second "connect" I have sneakily saved typing eight characters in the target. It is not necessary to do it this way.
