I want to configure a virtual host to return 404 for a specific request
I tried mod_rewrite
RewriteRule ^/(forbidden_.*) - [R=404]
RewriteRule ^/forbidden_ - [R=404]
should work, but this depends upon your apache version. It's implemented
since 2.1 I think. You're using this in per-server context (outside of
<directory>, no .htaccess files), right?
I would need to redirect to a nonexisting url, so the browser would
receive a 301 first and then get the 404,
No, there is another way:
RewriteRule ^/forbidden_ /nonexistent [L]
which would produce a 404 not found, too.
