/~lhilley isn't a redirection, it's a subdirectory name, which obviously
isn't in that list. The domain is the redirection. If you register a domain
"DomainTest.com" and get it hosted at "HostingServices.com" , then you put a
Newpage.html up at DomainTest.com , and type www.DomainTest.com/Newpage.html
, the domain "DomainTest.com" is redirected to a subdir or a machine (either
or both) at HostingServices.com , and the file Newpage.html is sent to you.
Ftp isn't redirected like that, to my knowledge, cause it's not the same
protocol for one thing. Ftp is a generic File Transfer Protocol , http is a
HyperText Transfer Protocol,, ftp  transfers what you asked for, http
transfers files from the domain you specify no matter where it actually is.
