pyredir 404
lost		 pyredir is a flexible but simple redirector for Squid implemented in Python. URLs matching Python regular expressions can be redirected using regular expression substitution, databases of filename-to-url mappings, alternative config files, or child redirectors. Utilities are provided for generating database files from file archives. It is primarily useful for redirecting requests to large local FTP archives, but it can also be useful as a top-level redirector that separates and feeds requests to more specialized child redirectors.
