Author redirection question

Is there a way to set up redirection to perform like the scenario below,
without having to set redirection location on each and every object on a
site in IIS (cause that'd be a real pain)?

somereallyoldsite.com/news/story.html needs to redirect to the the brand new
site with but with the same resource... the desired end result is:
ourreallynewgreatsite.com/news/story.html

Or is there a product out there that will help?

Does this make sense?

Thanks for any help or insight,

Chris

yes, IIS can does this fine.

play with the 'a redirection to a URL' option on the Home Directory page

Greetings all,

I've found a way to accomplish this...

It was surprisingly simple...setting a custom 404 redirect asp page with
only a line or two of ASP script.

Thanks Louis,

I've found a way to accomplish my assigned objective with an ASP page.

I was really surprised at how easy it was.

I do appreciate your help,

Hello,

This is possible with the IIS redirection. Please see the Redirect Reference
