Hi :)
I got Cake with mod_rewrite working on 1und1 servers (the german branch...)
with a little change to the .htaccess in webroot:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
</IfModule>
Please note the slash before index.php
Hope this helps
