Only allow Webaccess for Apache

I have NW 6.5 server running GW Webaccess 7.01 IR1.

I would like when people accessing the Apache server via port 80 or 443 and
does not matter which's the URl they use, they will be redirected to
https://webmail.domain.com/gw/webacc.

I have edited http.conf with
<VirtualHost IP:80:
ServerName webmail.domain.com
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/(.*) https://webmail.domain.com/gw/webacc [L,R]
</VirtualHost>

and it is redirecting properly when I use the following URL

http://ipaddress
http://webmail.domain.com
http://webmail.domain.com/servlet/webaccess (in case user has the old GW
6.5 UR)

however,
https://webmail.domain.com redirect me to
https://webmail.domain.com'welcome/index.html

https://webmail.domain.com/servlet/webacces game me "Object not found,
error 404".

Is there a way to redirect all requests to Apache to
https://webmail.domain.com/gw/webacc

Note that I don't have iManager installed on this machine.

Thanks
Ronny

you can also modify the login.htt template in the tomcat directory so
any attempt to connect to the servlet will redirect to the one page you
want. cool solutions has writeups on doing this...

you can get a much more descriptive answer down in the groupwise
groups.
