RewriteRule for Django app

Question

I have a Django app that currently handles several different domains. One in particular is abc.com/blog/

The content there is mostly static so I moved it over to a WordPress site. That site is hosted on wordpress.abc.com and follows the same link structure except it doesn't append /blog/ to any links.

I would like to write a RewriteRule that takes all abc.com/blog/ links and rewrites them to the new wordpress.abc.com site EXCEPT one page at abc.com/blog/special/

Here's what I've tried in my httpd.conf file thus far but it doesn't appear to be doing anything.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.abc.com$[OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^abc.com$
RewriteRule /blog/ wordpress.abc.com$1 [P,L]

Any help is greatly appreciate. I'm very much a newbie when it comes to Apache settings.

Place the rules within a Location directive. You can rewrite the last rule to something like this,

< Location /blog/>
RewriteEngine on
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^abc.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !abc.com/blog/special/$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://wordpress.abc.com/$1 [R=301,L]
<\Location>

Thanks. This doesn't seem to be doing anything either. I'm putting this at the bottom of my httpd.conf file. Is that where it's suppose to go?
