Sorry
my bad

Now I remembered the situation.

I have directory say "abc" in document root
Normally if I leave it handle by web server
visitor can access it with
http://www.example.com/abc/...

but I don't want that
this is what I want
http://www.example.com/!/...

Basically I can just rename directory "abc" to "!" but
I have good reason to leave it as "abc" in back-end.

thus I use rewrite module to handle this


first I just rewrite /!/ to /abc/ which pretty simple

<IfModule rewrite_module>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(\/?)\!\/(.*) $1abc/$2 [L]
</IfModule>

Now for security reason I don't want anyone access that content via
http://www.example.com/abc/...
then I add some more rewrite rule to make some kind of null route from that URI
this is when things mess up

<IfModule rewrite_module>
RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^\/abc\/.* [NC]
RewriteRule .* /null.txt [L]

RewriteRule ^(\/?)\!\/(.*) $1abc/$2 [L]

</IfModule>

The combination of 2 rewrite rules is not what I expect

LSWS behave like this:
- when people access
http://www.example.com/abc/...
it drop the request with some dummy file which is correct as my expectation.
- when people access
http://www.example.com/!/...
it also redirect to the dummy file.

this code is same for Apache.

However in Apache
I just put
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
on each rule
but as you know I can't do that on LSWS.

Now I have to handle the request with PHP or other server side script which is heavyweight and not a good solution.

Probably it may have some other solution but I can't think of good one.
