Amos,
Thanks again! Although the limited searching I have done can you point me
in the direction to find out to bring up the re-writer and its speed? Yes I
am only running 1. Also the url_rewrite_access, wouldn't I want all
websites to be checked against the ACL list? Or am I reading this wrong:
Used to define the access lists specifies which requests are sent to the
redirector processes.

Thanks
