another redirect

[Eire Angel]

they way it made sense to me,  is using

if ($host = 'www.oldsite.com/tips.ws' ) {
   rewrite  ^/(.*)$  http://www.newsite.com/tips_and_receipes  permanent;
}

but does nothing 

i also tries using the if sequence for request_filename.ws
with no luck as well
am i missing something.  like 6th grade .. :)
