If the URL's have a distinct pattern, mod_rewrite is the first tool you
should use. If you need something more arbitrary, you might want to take
a look at CamoAlias, a script of mine that lets you set up completely

whatever you want to with it.
CamoAlias - http://www.wynia.org/articles/camoalias.html
Which, incidentally is an alias for:
