Well, the best solution is to catch the complete
www.somehost.com website, rebuilding all links with
relative links - use filters to match exactly the site:
-* +www.somehost.com/*
..and then copy the filestructure to the remote
mirror.otherhost.com mirror site. That's all.
After mirroring the first site, no reference to
www.somehost.com should appear (EXCEPT formulars,
which can not be "mirrored" as is) and therefore
you'll have a working copy for mirror.otherhost.com.
You can optionnally filter some cgi's which may cause
problems, too (example: dynamic news pages from the
first site which should be kept as is) using filters,
remove the footer information (Options/Browser ID/HTML
Footer) (note: not advised for a mirror) and even
adapt the filestructure as you wish.
(Note: You can then re-mirror mirror.otherhost.com and
use 'absolute url'/'absolute url' in Options/Experts
Only/Rewrite Links, if you absolutely want all URLs to
be written with absolute links (http://..) - but this
is really not advised)
