Need some quick help: redirect sub dir to root dir

I just moved my forum from a sub directory to my root directory. I want to redirect all my old links from sub directory to the new links in root directory. How can I do this? ;]

Path was "mydomain.com/forums"
New Path is just "mydomain.com"

ex: "mydomain.com/forums/general-discussion/sim-intro"
I want to redirect to "mydomain.com/general-discussion/sim-intro"

try this:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod...irectpermanent

in .htaccess:

Code:

RedirectPermanent http://mydomain.com/forums http://mydomain.com/
