er... I think the custom 404 does the trick... and simple to implement too. I knew I shoulda dug deeper before posting...
Thanks anyways. Though I'd still be interested to hear if there are more elegant ways to do this....

Hi gang. I'm noticing some 404's on my Apache server. When I investigated, I discovered they are resulting from old links that don't exist anymore (but still appear on Google). I think I remember seeing a way to configure Apache to redirect 404 messages, but am missing the details. Do I just need to build a generic "The file cannot be found" page and setup a custom 404 message? For most of the 404's, the actual pages/articles still exist, but have been moved or renamed. Is there a quick and easy way to point these bad requests to the correct address? If the custom 404 message is the best choice, any tips on how to go about that? (I'm googling on this as well..) Thanks.
