I all, i was asked about how i got cakephp to work on 1and1. I can not
take credit for the solution, becaue it took me hours to find it online
(and i no longer have the link); but as posted on my site
http://ahmedkamel.net/2006/07/03/rails-vs-cake-which-one-should-i-chose/
here goes.

I found the solution some where online after long hours of searching,
and indeed mod_rewrite is the problem on 1and1. It seems that for
things to work on 1and1 you have to add a / at the beginning of the url
specified in the RewriteRule (.htaccess).

So, you cake/app/.htaccess file should look like this:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^$ /webroot/ [L]
RewriteRule (.*) /webroot/$1 [L]

Note, that you would have to make the same change to all your .htaccess
files.

In my case, I decided to work with the bakery, so I only bothered
making the changes to the /cake/bakery/webroot/.htaccess file (given
that my sub domain points to that folder).

Cheers and hope that helps.
