If you have admin access to the IIS server, follow the steps below:

1. Start Internet Services Manager. Alternatively, start the IIS Snap-in in Microsoft Management Console (MMC).

2. Click to expand * server name, where server name is the name of the server.

3. Right-click either the Web site or the folder that you want to redirect, and then click Properties.

4. Click one of the following tabs that is appropriate to your situation:

• Home Directory
• Virtual Directory
• Directory

5. Under When connecting to this resource, the content should come from, click A redirection to a URL.

6. Type the URL of the destination folder or Web site in the Redirect to box.

For example, to redirect all requests for http://domain.com/ to http://www.domain.com, type http://www.domain.com.

7. Click OK.

If you do not have admin access to the IIS server, do as per your underlying technology of your Windows IIS hosted website:

ASP Version:

Code:

<%@ Language=VBScript %>
<%
Response.Status="301 Moved Permanently" 
Response.AddHeader "Location", "http://www.domain.com"
%>

Code (markup):

ASP.NET Version:

Code:

<script runat="server">
private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
Response.Status = "301 Moved Permanently";
Response.AddHeader("Location","http://www.domain.com");
}
</script>

PHP Version:

Code:

<?php
 header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently");
 header("Location: http://www.domain.com");
?>

hi Sufyan,

thanks for your prompt reply, i tried to go into my iis manager, and i see the following in home directory, an option "A directory located on this computer" is the option selected and i see all the folder path where my entire website is stored.

this is a dedicated server and is loaded with only one website, please advice if i change this to the way you are proposing?

 

maybe the ServerBindings in the advanced mode of the IIS Settings will do:

Try :this:

Hope it Helps

 

i want to configure it in such a way that all the respecitive page of domainname.com/yahoo.html should go to www.domainname.com/yahoo.com

 

could you explain it further, it got me confused and why do you have a yahoo.com on your subfolder?

 

what i meant was forward it to yahoo.html

 

Try this!

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.somesite\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.somesite.com$1 [L,R=301]

Code (markup):

this would do and please remove the old 301 that exist and give it a go, but please clear your browser cache first.
