That sounds good ... but I am not sure if I understand how to implement 
this as it relates to Interchange.  Could you possibly give me an 
example.  If I created an .htaccess file in the /cgi-bin/ directory that said:

Redirect /cgi-bin/oldstore http://www.newserver.com/cgi-bin/newserver

Can you think of any Interchange specific reasons why this would not work?
