Yes - some links too, although most are actually relative and keep the domain. But once you set the new domain in the config file, everything will point to the new location anyway, so should be fine. > I'm thinking we need to switch our DSpace (dspace.cfg) to the new > domain, swap the Apache VirtualHost so that the new domain is the main > one, and then make all requests for the old domain get 301'd via > mod_rewrite. That sounds like a sensible approach, and should take care of the search engines too.
