I'm trying to forward one domain that leads to my DO droplet to another domain that also leads to the same droplet. I've done this in the past with a simple 301 redirect in an .htaccess file. But after adding this it still isn't forwarding.

I've added the .htaccess file in the /var/www/html folder, should I try adding this further up the dir structure? Or is there a better or more suitable option to doing this?

The end result should take domain-one.com and forward it to domain-two.com instead.

I am running a ubuntu with lamp droplet by the way.
