Thanks – I will move any followup questions over to the misc list.  That’s a great article – just wanted to say.

Not to beat my own drum, but I blogged about this recently: https://info.varnish-software.com/blog/rewriting-urls-with-varnish-redirection

TL;DR: you need a 30X return code, and to put the new URL in the correct header (location).

if (req.url~ "^/type/news?$") {
   return (synth (750,"http://" + req.http.Host + "/news/"));
}
