So I looked at how this script works and compared to the example found here: 
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/misc/rewriteguide.html

The example code works perfectly.
 # And for a site running on port 80 
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}   !^www\.example\.com [NC] 
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}   !^$ 
 RewriteRule ^/(.*)         http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R]

The program web_alias_redirects.pl inserts this when toggling. In both cases
the  rewrite is commented out for some reason. Remove the comments and the
browser doesn't display the page but it did rewrite the url.

Disabled
 #RewriteRule ^/(.*)                      http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301] 
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}                 !^1.1.1.1(:80)?$ 
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}                 !^www.example.com(:80)?$ [NC] 
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}                 !^example.com(:80)?$ [NC] 
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}                 !^www.example2.com(:80)?$ [NC] 
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}                 !^example.com(:80)?$ [NC]

Enabled
 #RewriteRule ^/(.*)                      http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301] 
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}                 !^65.172.200.27(:80)?$ 
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}                 !^www.example.com(:80)?$ [NC]

I can rewrite web_alias_redirects.pl to work as I want but I'd like to know if
it's aleady been fixed and I simply have an old version. ;)

Thanks,

Randy
