Hi Jean-Philippe,
 
Took me time to answer as well...
It becomes pretty weird if this is working on another machine.
If your browser queries for cookies this is not because of Apache but
related to your web application.
Do you use mod_usertrack?
Can you provide a full log? If it logs 20 attempts it might mean that
your pointed server (thenewwebsite) does a HTTP redirect and end up in
an endless loop.

        Hi Olivier and httpd users !
        
        Sorry for my delay of replying since my last post. Thanks
Olivier 
        for your answer ! In my configuration, I use RewriteEngine
        to on when I try to setup this configuration
        I tried to change the RewriteRule from (.+) to .+
        
        and to add [P] (In this case I needed to set up proxy pass
        but the result is still the same
        
        for this configuration:
                <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
                        RewriteEngine On
                        RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER}
^http://incoming_web_site*\.html
        
                        RewriteRule (.+) http://thenewsite.com
                        RewriteLog
/usr/local/apache2052/logs/rewrite_vh9p.log
                        RewriteLogLevel 9
                </IfModule>
        
         
        the redirection seems to work, thenewsite.com is written in my
browser but
        this brower tells me to activate cookies and in the access
logfile, the attempt
        is repeated 20 times.
        
        On another machine, with the same operating system (FC4) and the
same web server
        (apache 2052), it works fine !
        
        
        Cheers

        Hi,
         
        First, I supppose that's just a cut/paste mistake, but with
        
        RewriteEngine set to Off, not much will happen.
        Second, you might want to play with [P] flag to proxy the
request.
        Anyway, your last rule is strange: you might try:
        
        RewriteRule  .*  
        http://www.theanotherpage.com <http://www.theanotherpage.com/>
[P]

                Subject: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Question about mod_rewrite
        
                
                
                hello
                
                I need help and advices about using mod_rewrite
                
                I have some pdf files on my web site
                A foreign web site has stored these pdf file on a html
file on
        this foreign web site
                I would like to redirect its requests to another page 
        
                
                so I wrote:
                        <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
                                RewriteEngine Off
                                RewriteCond  %{HTTP_REFERER}
        ^
        http://www.theforeignwebsite.com/*\.html
<http://www.theforeignwebsite.com/*%5C.html>  
                                RewriteRule  (.+)
http://www.theanotherpage.com <http://www.theanotherpage.com/> 
                        </IfModule>
        
                
                But it doesn't work ! When the foreign web site tries to
access
        , the redirection begins but doesn't finish. 
                in the access log of my web site, the access is repeated
20
        times with a 302 number for the redirect
        
                On IE, an error message is returned, on firefox, it
tells me to
        check the cookies...
                
                However I tested this configuration on the same apache
server (
        2.0.52) on another machine and the redirection
                works well and it succeded
        
                
                I tried to specify the redirection code 302 or 301 in
the append
        flag R but it is the same
                
                Thanks for your help
                
                cheers
