Hi there,

I'm trying this the 'n'th time now, meanwhile I switched hosters 3
times and all of them support mod_rewrite.
Nothing ever worked for me, am I that lame? I think so...

I use

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^f([0-9]+)/?$ forumdisplay.php?forumid=$1&s=$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^t([0-9]+)\.html$ showthread.php?threadid=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^t([0-9]+)-([0-9]+)\.html$ showthread.php?threadid=$1&perpage=15&pagenumber=$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^f([0-9]+)-([0-9]+)/$ forumdisplay.php?forumid=$1&daysprune=1000&sortorder=&sortfield=lastpost&perpage=40&pagenumber=$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^[ft]([0-9]+)/s([^/]*)/(.+)$ /$3 [L]

in an .htaccess-file in my forum-directory where all
the vB-files reside.

After placing the htaccess-file i should be able to browse my board by typing in
something like http://mcseboard.de/f3 which should get me
http://www.mcseboard.de/forumdisplay.php?&forumid=3 - it doesn't

What's wrong here?
Thanks for any hint,
-Tom

P.S.: My URL isn't domain.com/forum but straight domain.com
That's the only difference I can see to a standard vB installation.
