Re: robots.txt with a 301 redirect

@Bernard
Ha. Of course, that would be easy wouldn't it. Seems we're kinda going
in circles here. Don't worry though, as I said this is not a huge
priority, something I'd really LIKE to get working, but don't
necessarily NEED. I'm inquiring here as a last resort before settling
for some comprimise.

Anyway, your suggestion of removing the robots.txt or the Disallow: /
would lead to files stored at domain1.com getting indexed wouldn't
it ;) which I'd ideally like to avoid.

I want urls on domain1.com that redirect to domain2.com to be indexed.
But I want to prevent urls on domain1.com that really lead to files on
domain1.com being indexed.

Impossible?
