.htaccess redirect to external URL while hiding redirect

Question

I want to be able to redirect a domain pointed to my webhosting to an external domain.

For example, I have this in my .htaccess:

RewriteCond %{HTTP:         


        

Answer 1

Bit long ago, but I'll answer the question anyway for those who come here by Google (like me). The answer is really simple:

In your htaccess, remove the R=301 part (and the comma of course).

R=301 means you do it via a 301 redirect. You don't want that
