301 redirect using IIS7 for multisite installation

I was looking to use IIS for a 301 redirect of one my sites in a multisite mojoportal installation.

This is so that I can redirect sites www.domain.com, www.domain.co.uk, domain.co.uk all to Domain.com.

However once set in HTTP redirect in IIS all other sites under that multisite installation also get directed to the redirect.

Is there any way that we can set just the one instance of an installation to a new 301 redirect.

Cheers

If configured correctly I would think IIS could do it correctly but we do have built in support for that in mojoPortal, so you can have mojoPortal do the redirecting, see Forcing a Preferred Host Name

Hope that helps,

Joe

Hi,

The IIS HTTP Redirect is going to work on the entire site.

If you want to do this in IIS, you'll need to use the URL Rewriter.

I suggest using mojoPortal's Preferred Host Name feature.

HTH,

Joe, Joe,

Really very useful information to know. Many thanks.

As more tld's become available this will be very useful.

Also, as Joe A say s in the link, this is very useful for the SSL settings.

Cheers for that, I can now put back the hair I was pulling out.

All the best.

Simon
