Thanks Nick for your suggestion.

I added the below with the correct modifications.

<Directory "/home/.sites/XX/site#/web">
   AllowOverride All
   Options All
</Directory>

That didn't work.  I modified my .htaccess file to have the following now:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
Options +FollowSymLinks
Redirect 301 /niihau /index.php?topic=Niihau

That didn't work either.    So I took everything out and just redirect it to
the Redirect line.  I think the Options line will be handy later.  But that
didn't work either.

I then changed the Directory directive to since the .htaccess file was in
the niihau directory.

<Directory "/home/.sites/58/sit34/web/niihau">
   AllowOverride All
   Options All
</Directory>

The .htaccess looked like this:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
Redirect 301 /niihau /index.php?topic=Niihau

Still no luck?  Any other ideas?
