There is a Redirect directive for srm.conf :

	Redirect virtual URL

to map an existing document path and file on your server to a new URL.
"virtual" is a partial pathname after URL translation. "URL" is the URL of
a new document (perhaps on a different system).

You can have as many redirect directives in srm.conf as required. There is
no default.

Also, these may be helpful
http://www.au.com/tool/advt/track.cgi.txt (This script redirects
browsers to a new URL)
http://union.ncsa.uiuc.edu/HyperNews/get/www/redirect.html

Can an environmental variable be declared to redirect?
