Provide content editors capability of specifying 301 redirects

[Krisgum]

Hi Guru's ,

 I'm facing a use case where content editors would like to have a capability of configuring a 301 redirects.

 From the web found some articles where using a component or in a template can specify a desired response code and a configure a redirect url .However I'm not sure of this approach as the request will always hit publishers before redirecting .

I would like to have my solution using redirects at web server level to avoid load on publishers . Are there any solutions where a redirect file can be generated on fly based on author's configurations of src and dest url's  and pushed to apache ? 

cheers

I dont think there is a way you can push the configuration to webserver, it has to be configured manually to webserver or may have to write a script to update the same.
