What I mean is that on a temp basis (when uploading the new
files) I would like to have any requests for "domain.com/cgi-bin/
cart.cgi/anypage....." to get redirected to "domain.com/index.html"
which would be a construction notice page.  The redirect and 
rewrite allows you to do this for a file or dir, but does not appear
to work on a url with /cgi-bin/cart.cgi/...  I think alias is if you are
moving something or want it to appear like a different location.  I 
just didn't want people to see the "broken down" site.

Has anyone done this, or just let people see the down site while
changing it?
