Many thanks - this was exactly what I was doing, squashing many URLs
into a few in an attempt to load balance requests over a few web
servers.

I've since decided to leave the URLs as they are and not use a
redirector, but let squid think that all vhosts that come in are local,
(they are in the local hosts file as 127.0.0.1) and let a small load
balancing binary (balance from http://www.inlab.de/balance.html) farm
out the requests to the web servers.

Thanks,
