mod_rewrite help

I'm fairly new when it comes to Apache, but regular expressions aren't really an issue for me. I'm designing a new website for one of the companies I'm employed by. I test it and run it locally, and when it is all done it will be uploaded to our vps , so I have been using website root based absolute links for everything.

However now my boss wants the ability to access it over the intranet, and my intranet account is the standard /~user/ account, so it obviously causes major issues. I've been rewriting this mod_rewrite in an .htaccess all day, as well as foraging through old forum posts on google, and still haven't been able to get it to work. Any help from an apache pro would be great (our server guy is mysteriously missing today |-_-| ).

  1. RewriteEngine on
  2. RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /[^~]\w+[/\w.-]*
  3. RewriteRule \s/([\w.-/]*) /~mynamehere/$1

I have a people-networking type site in which each user has their own profile page, with their user id encoded. So, for example, the web address of their page might look like "www.example.com/my_profile.php?user_id=fdjkhfh2489298hf298h3s0dhfxj". I want the users to be able to choose their own web address that would look like "www.example.com/Joel", and then when they type in that address, they are automatically redirected to their profile...

Hi, I have verified that mod_rewrite is enabled on my Apache 2.2 instance. However, now I'm having a problem just serving pages using .htaccess files. Following Rik's advice, my .htaccess file is as follows RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !^accesscontrol.php
