[ale] redirect rule for RHEL5?

[Chad Huneycutt]

You can definitely do it that way, then.  I was in the middle of
replying that you would have a problem if the internal and external
clients accessed it the same way.  Just create name-based vhosts for
hostname and www.exampledom.com on eth1's IP.

Actually, I should caveat that by saying that if the application
canonicalizes the urls it generates, you will still be stuck.
