Redirect: Root to Directory

[zulufox]

I installed moveabletype to:

Widget.com/mt/

I wanted to direct all traffic that goes to widget.com to widget.com/mt/

How is the best way to do this?

I tried htaccess and read a few guides, but all tell you how to direct from the directory to another directory, not the root to a directory.

Any suggestions or other options?

Are you talking about just the index file, or anything in the directory? For the former, the easiest way is with a simple index.php:

<?php
header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently");
header("Location: ./mt/");
exit;
?>
