htaccess redirect all pages to single page

Question

If your aim is to redirect all pages to a single maintenance page (as the title could suggest also this), then use:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/maintenance.php$ 
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_HOST} !^000\.000\.000\.000
RewriteRule $ /maintenance.php [R=302,L] 

Where 000 000 000 000 should be replaced by your ip adress.

Are you trying to get visitors to old.com/about.htm to go to new.com/about.htm? If so, you can do this with a mod_rewrite rule in .htaccess:

RewriteEngine on

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.thenewdomain.com/$1 [R=permanent,L]

This will direct everything from the old host to the root of the new host:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{http_host} ^www.old.com [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{http_host} ^old.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.thenewdomain.org/ [R=301,NC,L]

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?olddomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ "http://www.thenewdomain.com/" [R=301,L]
