Redirect all pages of one TLD + a single directory to the root of another TLD

In Redirect all pages of one TLD to another there's a clear example of how to Redirect from the root of one TLD to the root of another TLD. But I want add a Rewrite Condition & Rule to my .htaccess file that will do the following redirects...

www.example.com/one  -->  www.example.co.uk
www.example.com/one/two  -->  www.example.co.uk/two
www.example.com/one/two/three  -->  www.example.co.uk/two/three

So basically it will redirect the URL to one where the TLD is changed and the first directory in the path (/one) is removed.

So something like this should be in your vhost for www.example.com

 RewriteEngine On
 RewriteRule ^/one(.*) www.example.net/$1 [R=301,L]

R=301 causes the browser to cache the answer and send the next request to that target directly to the according URL. So clear your cache while testing ;)

Or, if you don't want to see the requestor that he is being redirected:

 RewriteRule ^/one(.*) www.example.net/$1 [P,L]

Which requires the mod_proxy module to be activated.


One a sidenote: plz use example.com in examples, because domain can't be used ;)
