all user pages are only on master.
Maybe it might be a good idea to use mod_rewrite to redirect all the
~something/blah.html -requests from www.penguinppc.org directly to
master.penguinppc.org, or at least have the 404 page mention about it?
At least Ben's page is linked from a gazillion places.
We could fix this with Apache's mod_rewrite. The only problem is that
mod_rewrite stuff is painful enough to qualify into the Debian
definition of pain. Or as the Apache docs state:
"With mod_rewrite you either shoot yourself in the
foot the first time and never use it again or love it for the
rest of your life because of its power."
And I am not yet sure which group I belong to :-)
OH! Wow! I found this from the Apache documentation, so things turn out
easy after all:

Move Homedirs to Different Webserver
Description:
A lot of webmaster aksed for a solution to the following
situation: They wanted to redirect just all homedirs on a
webserver to another webserver. They usually need such things
when establishing a newer webserver which will replace the old
one over time.
Solution:
The solution is trivial with mod_rewrite. On the old webserver
we just redirect all /~user/anypath URLs to
http://newserver/~user/anypath.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/~(.+) http://newserver/~$1 [R,L]

Those probably go to your http_conf, or whatever your setup is in
www.penguinppc.org.
