Guest pvong Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 Win2003 DNS question. I'm a new at this. Can you make an entry in the DNS that will redirect? Basically, if someone browse http://home.domain.com, I want it to go to https://srv.domain.com. Please note I'm redirected to a secure site. Thanks

Simply create a new zone in the DNS called (using your example above) domian.com Then create a New Host (A) record and name it 'home' so the FQDN becomes home.domain.com. Now add the IP address of https://srv.domain.com. Now when a user types in http://home.domain.com they will be redirected to https://srv.domain.com. There may be another way but that's how I do it.
Guest Anthony [MVP] Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 Re: DNS entry to redirect Not in DNS. DNS just resolves an IP address. You can do this in IIS, by setting a redirection in the site that is Home to the site that is SRV Anthony, http://www.airdesk.co.uk "pvong" <phillip*at*yahoo*dot*com> wrote in message news:OATooGs1IHA.4912@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... > Win2003 DNS question.
