An Apache2 .htaccess file can be used to provide redirection anywhere:

ErrorDocument 404 http://www.somedomain.com/

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine On
rewriteCond %{http_host} ^somedomain.com
rewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.somedomain.dev/$1<http://www.somedomain.com/$1>
 [R=301,L]

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /index\.php\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.somedomain.dev/ <http://www.somedomain.com/>
 [R=301,L]
