Is it possible to have a mod-rewrite on a Netscape-Enterprise/3.6 SP2 server and if so how can it be done?

Thanks

Looks as if it may be but I couldn't find specifics.

See "ACL Management" at [wp.netscape.com...]

Strictly speaking, mod_rewrite is an Apache-specific feature and there is no comparable functionality in Netscape Enterprise or Compass.

You can do basic redirection, which Netscape called "Forwarding URLs," allowing for shortcut URLs that return a 302 message. IIRC this could be managed either through the Server Manager or by editing the obj.conf file (and probaby from .nsaccess); unfortunately, I don't remember the exact Directive syntax you'd need to use.
