Odd, i found that

Redirect / http://www.blah.com

works for me and delivers all pages no matter how far nested off root:

Redirect /(.*) http://www.blah.com/$1

does not.  i'm not sure but i think the aliasing might only be available
to the RedirectMatch Directive and not Redirect (at least in apache 2.0).

also see my other comment about 301 in the other post for better seo.

thanks
