Hey Eric, Thank you for the advice. You hit the nail on the head. The Ubuntu Apache installation comes pre-configured with a catch-all default virtual-host which apparently (as you said) was not inheriting the rewrite settings. Copy-pasting the identical configuration settings into the virtual-host body resulted in the expected behavior. After consulting the documentation again (armed with this new insight) I also noticed the following section:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_rewrite.html#vhosts which describes how to have a virtual host inherit rewrite rules. Apparently the following directives are required in the body of the virtual host: RewriteEngine On RewriteOptions Inherit Thanks again for your help!
