Marc, Thanks for the reply...the only documentation that I was able to find was on mod_setenvif Tracy Tracy Barnes (mr.)

Would you be open to consulting this problem for us on fee? We can have mod_rewite compiled into the server, and just need to know how to set up a directory so the files in that directory can only be accessed from within our domain, denying all outside links to these files and hopefully with a redirect that would send the "offender" to our homepage. Our domain is a virtual domain and hopefully the rewrite directives could be placed into an .htaccess file. I'd be glad to pay for your expert advice.
