I can't seem to find an answer to this specific question:

How can I forward `http://play.domain.com` -- but NOT `http://play.domain.com/xxx`

To:
`http://work.domain.com`

Where "xxx" is any string.

In other words, if the user requests the site root, redirect, otherwise stay on the chosen URL.

I've tried

```
RewriteEngine On 

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !work.domain.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://work.domain.com.com/$1 [R=301,L]

```

But it's not doing anything :-/
