here's how I define the virtual server in apache. I do it in the apache
config since doing it in the .htaccess is cumbersome, puts extra load on
the server and should generally only be used by people who don't control
the apache they run under:

# Allow wiki articles to start with a period
<Files .*>
 Order Deny,Allow
 Allow From All
</Files>

RewriteEngine on

RewriteRule ^/index.php/(.*)$ http://${SITENAME}.org/$1 [R,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(stylesheets|images|config|stats)/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(redirect|texvc|index).php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/error/(40(1|3|4)|500).html
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/favicon.ico
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/robots.txt

RewriteRule ^/(.*) /index.php/$1 [L]
