Rewrite rule

[Legolas]

I need some help doing a rewrite for my apache 1.3x server..

Here's the scenario:

I'd like all traffic from:

[domain.com...] (where '*' is a wildcard to capture any hit on that directory)

to go to:

[domain.com...]

basically, I'd like to have any request that would have been directed to the /cgi-bin/boards dir. redirected to the new URL and page.

So, something like:

[domain.com...]

should redirect to:

[domain.com...]

Thanks in advance!
