Hi guys, Anyone know how, via .htaccess in htdocs/, to make *all* web requests return a specified document instead? I'm thinking of the occassions when I take a website (LNC) down to play with it and I want everyone to see a message in a file elsewhere, like htdocs/placeholder.html instead.

Use the ErrorDocument directive. See p45 of Apache: the Definitive Guide. O'Reilly.
