If you have an RSS feed that you want to redirect to a new feed in another location, you need to use mod_rewrite in your redirecting .htaccess file in the old location. Add the following rules to that .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine on
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^oldfeed.xml$ http://www.coolexample.com/?feed=new_rss_location [R=301,L]
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^oldfeed.xml$ http://www.coolexample.com/?feed=new_rss_location [R=301,L]
In addition you will need to either delete or rename the old XML feed.
For more information about mod_rewrite and .htaccess files please see the Apache Web site.
