That portion seems to work but I don't see the files generated anywhere.

The link i'm trying to view is:

http://www.mymodeltalk.com/jobs/sitemap_index.xml

I had to add some more to my htaccess file, I added...

# Comment the following line (add '#' at the beginning)
# to disable mod_rewrite functions.
# Please note: you still need to disable the hack in
# the vBSEO control panel to stop url rewrites.
RewriteEngine On

# Some servers require the Rewritebase directive to be
# enabled (remove '#' at the beginning to activate)
# Please note: when enabled, you must include the path
# to your root vB folder (i.e. RewriteBase /forums)
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^forum\.yoursite\.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://forum\.yoursite\.com/$1 [L,R=301]

and it worked. Dunno why but it did. This suited my setup so I guess you would need to change it to suit your own.
