                   Network: Apache: asis file(last edit: 2001-03-18)
                   Asis files
An asis file is an alternative/faster way to rewrite to another page.

You should have the following option in your apache configuration file:

    AddHandler send-as-is asis

It would also be nice to add 'index.asis' to your DirctoryIndex:

    DirectoryIndex index.asis index.html index.htm

Now you can make a asis file like this:

user@host:/tmp# cat lowlife.asis 
Status: 301
Location: http://www.lowlife.org
Content-type: text/html
