I want the base URL (http://www.mysite.com) to be preserved for this redirected page. How can I accomplish this? Do I need to use a directive other than redirect?

If the page is at the same place, use a relative location instead :

     redirect location /violation.html if acl_met

It's a lot cleaner.
