Converting from PHP-Nuke to Drupal

by

I found that I could preserve direct article links from the old Nuke site when I converted to Drupal by adding the following rewrite rule to my .htaccess:

  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^name=News&file=article&sid=([^&]+)$
  RewriteRule modules.php index.php?q=node/view/%1 [L]
