[Mailman-Users] UPPER CASE URLs

[Hicks, Robert CTR]

Just in case...there are idiots like me out there.

In the virtual host section I appended the following:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteOptions Inherit
RewriteMap lower int:tolower
RewriteRule [A-Z] ${lower:%{REQUEST_URI}} [R=301,L]


Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Bob

This is an apache/web server question (I don't think IIS is case  
sensitive, if it is please correct me). If I'm right in my first  
assumption about your web server, then check mod_speling as a way to  
have this go to the same place in either case.

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_speling.html for version 2.0  
and your favourite package manager to handle installation for your  
flavour of OS.

The other option is to play with mod_rewrite rules (again check  
httpd.apache.org).
