301 redirect doesn't match ...

[youradds]

Hi,

Got a bit of a weird one here

I've trying to make the domain/links/* stuff do a 301 redirect to the main domain. I have the following:

RewriteRule ^links/(.*)

http://domain.com/

[R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^links/?$

http://domain.com/

[R=301,L]

This works when you goto domain.com/links and domain.com/links/ ...but if you goto domain.com/links/something , I still get a 404 error

Can anyone suggest what I'm doing wrong?

TIA

Andy

Eugh, never mind. For some reason the .htaccess was setup as root:root - so when I was saving in FTP,it wasn't actually uploading.

I "chowned" it, and now my regex works fine =)

Cheers
