Well... Yes and no :)

If those Rewrite(Engine|Cond|Rule) settings are written in httpd.conf
then everything works as you wrote - and that is EXACTLY what I
wanted. But if the settings are in .htaccess file in /App1 then it
behaves a bit differently, there should be the dispatch.cgi in URI as
I wrote (becouse I was setting it in .htaccess as other settings).
Just moving it to httpd.conf solved the problem.

(So there is only a note for me to look at the differencies in apache docs)

So again thank you for your help.
