Redirect based on user for .htaccess

[qsir1]

I need to be able to redirect based on the user that logs in. I know that I can do it through php or perl but I NEED to do it through .htaccess. here's what I have now- it doesn't do any redirection. Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

RewriteEngine On
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /work/protect/.htpasswd
AuthName "PROTECTED"
require valid-user
satisfy any
# If it's user 'x', do this
#Redirect /work/protect/ [google.com...]
#if it user 'y', do this
#Redirect /work/protect/ [yahoo.com...]

<Limit GET>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</Limit>

qsir1,

Welcome to WebmasterWorld!

See Apache mod_rewrite [httpd.apache.org], and specifically the RewriteCond directive.

RewriteCond %{REMOTE_USER} ^user_Y$

ahead of a RewriteRule for redirection will probably do what you want.
