Thanks for your hints. I finally found a solution, and indeed I had to use a combination of both approaches. I'm documenting it here so that other project maintainers will have less trouble. First, I added an .htaccess containing: RedirectPermanent / http://mxe.cc/ This causes a clean, HTTP permanent redirect on: http://mingw-cross-env.nongnu.org/ --> http://mxe.cc/ However, the other webserver (for www.nongnu.org) seems to ignore the .htaccess file, so I also had to create an index.html for meta-refresh: http://www.nongnu.org/mingw-cross-env/ --> http://mxe.cc/ Finally, I verified that everything works as expected, by looking at the result headers: curl -D- http://mingw-cross-env.nongnu.org/ curl -D- http://www.nongnu.org/mingw-cross-env/ That's it!
